A Light in the Mirror

lying here
almost comatose
trying to be
a little bit verbose

the words i form
have no sound
they leave me
nothin’ but spellbound

i try and i try
to cause discourse
but i run and i run
endless racecourse

everyone stares
emotionless blank faces
not a one taking stock
blame for their choices

and as this world
turns and burns
i get up, dust off,
my soul yearns and churns

i can’t take anymore
of all of these fakers
middle-class trash being
hookers and drinkers

stand a part
my heart ripped out
found beating and bleeding
and kicked about

what do I got
I ask myself
my life and just some stuff
on the bookshelf

when does it end
a wise man asked
only whence the madman
has been unmasked

till then i’ve got
to fight and live
and only hope my
grandchildren can forgive

for the world i will hand them
will be nearly dead
thanks to greed and ignorance
retards like the skinheads

but i do my part
i get out the vote
watch the politicians dance
and media misquote

forgive me father
for i have sinned
all of the actions
i cannot rescind.
