Offended by everything
Defender of anything
Hijacking discourse
Just to own the libs
Smug fucking smile
Hides behind cops
Terminal ignorance
Can’t fucking stop
Shit-talking rhetoric
Destroying dialectic
Conflating ideologies
Chests puffed, arms crossed
Nice fucking hat
Super sweet shades
Get the fuck out

Suffocating presence
Passed on in vanity
Exponential
Destruction
Justified by biological defeat
You’ll do better than before
Using the same tools
I see you talking to your tribe
But you’re not fucking convincing

Manipulated into position
Raising the stakes
Willing begging sacrifice
Trained to acquire
Apathetic indifference
Moral ambiguity
Never saw it coming
Acquisitions inhibit action
Critical thinking follows
Compromised from without
We own the methods
We own the solutions
Retreating into complacency
SANCTION EVERYTHING

Explain Yourself

Tell me what it’s like
To be so fucking white
Explain away your privilege
Make me see your side
Change myself
INTO WHITE

Waiting for the flash
Consuming wash of flame
75 years of suspense
Instant gratification
Nuclear power
Nuclear waste of time
East vs West
Arbitrary distinctions
Right vs Left
Temporary solutions
North vs South
Fundamental clash
Cross vs Moon and Star
Get it fucking over with

Thin Air

When the paved earth
Finally crumbles
Who will we look to
For comfort?
When demagogues
Fail on promises
Who else is there to blame?
Faith and spirituality
It’s all just smoke and mirrors
Take your tarot cards and scripture
And shove it up your ass
When technology exceeds
Our grasp
Who will save us
From ourselves?
When it all feels
So inevitable
Who is left to give a fuck?
Idolatry and reverence
For what for who and how?
Terrified
By hopeless infinity

It’s too hard to be consistent
This scene demands too much
I’d rather be apolitical
Than think too hard
THIS IS HOW WE
EMBRACE APATHY
Full out racists in every band
You don’t care just raise your hands
Nothing too extreme or ignorant
Nothing to challenge my comfort
EMBRACE APATHY

What the fuck have we done?
Taken everything for granted
Poisoned minds, poisoned earth
Our guilt is shared, our penance earned
Symbolic corsair
Vitriolic course
We are the pirates, the plunderers
The thieves
Revolution
Will not be heard
While we sail
With our avatars of greed
