Pisces / Almost Home

Once lost we will never find our way

Shutting down weæ?®e devoid of things to say

Prospects are growing worse with every hour

With no voice it seems weæ?³e got no power

Overcome by headlines

We believe what isnæ?° true

Youæ?³e got no empathy for anyone but you

Our moral contradictions

And subjective, hollow tomes

Perpetuate the fear asphyxiating us at home so

Seems like thereæ?¯ no place left to hide

From the cold, amorphous dread

That we all feel inside

Actions might dictate who survives

The hopelessness which punctuates

Our empty lives

Could there be something

I need a reason

Could there be anything at all

Systems of technology which once kept us

Informed

Now endeavor to perpetuate the norm

Privatization of concentrated wealth

While millions still suffer

In dilapidated health so

Who cares to calculate

What indigence will cost

How will we replicated urbanity thatæ?¯ lost

The curtain falls on the ultimate disgrace

We hunger for equality

Though weæ?³e never had a taste

The irony will make you laugh

Intervene on our behalf

To undo this mask of false complicity

The despotic, right-wing government

Has manufactured our consent

Can we entrust ourselves

To transform their doctrine to dissent
