spend all my time
breaking into empty vaults
toil for my food,
but it expires before i’m home
waiting for the turn
in my chosen template plot
the distance churns
oh but the rains, they never come
since we were born
we’ve been promised glass and chrome
beige frozen smiles,
a biopic for everyone
but mercy me,
the future’s not what it once was
when we arrived
it was stripmined and hollowed out
(no no way to escape it)
felt the heat rising in my veins
couldn’t move like a deer in headlights
allayed by laundered lies
but they remained untrue
brought a nap to a gunfight
swallowed smoke
coughing through amniotic jokes
how can you show a man
what he’s paid not to know?
the market spoke:
it locked the doors while crying hoax
in a crowded fire
as we ignited one by one
now i’m on fire, i’m engulfed
the blaze cannot be stopped
believe deniers all you want
the flames will find you out
