We spoke our minds too clearly. We assumed fundamental rights were inherent
not as pawns but humyns. I do not require a gauge for freedoms of speech cuz
I never asked to be a citizen.
I never have and NEVER will pledge allegiance...
Waking up each morning with confusion in my eyes. The wind is biting through
to wave "hello." Seeing my reflection, an exterior of lies. I hope this
shaking feeling dosen't show. As if I had to tell you, there was little left
to say. Stilted/stupid coversations coloured blue. You were sitting down and
you got up to walk away. I tried to stay but I was right behind you. Tension
in the stair, I cannot bear so close to helpless as this song I sing. Inside
me ring. Final words are boring never touch I know you whispered something in
my ear. I couldn't hear you. Gyrls with the greenest eyes. First time you have
kissed. Our quiet safest sighs. A song for all of those who shot and missed.
Welcomed to this world, imputed identity. Born, tagged, tattooed, pacified.
Generously bestowed my rights + privelages replete. Arbitrary values as-
cribed. There's nothing I can tell you. There's nothing I can say. Stunted
conversation, censored thought. I'm completely free, at liberty, guaranteed.
Unless of course, you decide I'm not. But I'll not be risigned to fall in line
behind you. Tension in the air I cannot bear so what the fuck am I accomplish-
ing. Absolutely nothing. All these words are boring. It's time for action. But
you've taught me to be a pawn. Hey, it won't last for long. Those who see
through the lies are quickly bound ans gagged. Their ambitions realised. Tear
the whole fucking thing down
