The evils which plague and haunt man take form. |
Ocean Liner Incident Star sights and Northern lights Stormy seas and cloudy nights The ocean liner incident Heart-broken halibut and tear-bearing trout Wash up belly up onto beaches of doubt Are they dead or just lost all hope? Because oil spills over all our dreams Black and sticky, river current streams Flowing over fields of Jersey Filling every crack, crevice, and chamber I breathe the slick surface glistening off silver tongues Evil thickness secreting from my stomach and lungs Plastic and chemicals to uplift your face Liquor to remove the words that you taste Smoky skies slide over the sunny sights And darkness decomposes everything bearing light Breaks down happy people, builds up those who feast on pain Break down happy people, builds up those who feast on pain Grass is no longer green and air no longer clean Everything we see and breathe is poisoned by we With every lie we tell, and every empty tear shell Where our words taste the way they sound As they drip from moist lips, they make you gag Where we compete to see who's life is harder And go looking for trouble just so we feel stronger Where heart-break and love-affairs Where you say it but we know you don't care Where oil spills and midnight chills Where there is nothing left to lose because we all lost it anyway Where there is nothing left to lose because you threw it all away |
