Grey Thoughts

View Original

All Systems Fail

We're mindless
Adoring violence
Worship crimes in silence
We hide since
We're frightened
Waiting for lightning
To strike while hiding
Seemed right then

We try to be better
By sending our selves motivational letters
But no matter the weather

The truth shows
And who knows if we'll grow?
And mature and get bold?
And let go of old flows that just hold us
But we get cold and think slow
Make a big fuss
A big show

Yet
Hoping for salvation
This great nation is dissolving
Evolving in relation to absolving its temptations
Its sins and hesitation to rectify the planned sedation
Of its people when it had no patience
Jails open, flags burning
The police quaking as they're shaking in their boots
Their stomach churning
We've been yearning for the change
We've been angry and enraged
Waiting for ages for this place to fucking break
Make no mistake
What we want we plan to take
