our quiet blanket
clear the air for me its to thick with disgust
and self hatred
or if not this
then delusional self engrandizment
give it up for lent this dross of egoism
but onward do we wage in contortions of angry lie
come my fair maidens of honor
come bath in the oil of life
come children look at those poor dead doves of peace
they are the stumbling blocks to freedom
do you really care
have you had your fair share
is enough come to the kingdom
and has the mighty yet made its mark
my pretty little flag waver
my silent little hater
do you really want to clear the air
of whats become the greatest pink elephant
nobody admits is there
the earth is a tomb for the ignorent it seems
and whats left of loves host are but caretakers of fading memories
like so many names on a war monument
in the end nothing rhymes with war
except the silence of space
our quiet blanket of endless liberation
and self hatred
or if not this
then delusional self engrandizment
give it up for lent this dross of egoism
but onward do we wage in contortions of angry lie
come my fair maidens of honor
come bath in the oil of life
come children look at those poor dead doves of peace
they are the stumbling blocks to freedom
do you really care
have you had your fair share
is enough come to the kingdom
and has the mighty yet made its mark
my pretty little flag waver
my silent little hater
do you really want to clear the air
of whats become the greatest pink elephant
nobody admits is there
the earth is a tomb for the ignorent it seems
and whats left of loves host are but caretakers of fading memories
like so many names on a war monument
in the end nothing rhymes with war
except the silence of space
our quiet blanket of endless liberation
