Increments back the blood

wore mask of mud

cucumbers cut to fit their eyes

and so no one would know

how tired they've grown

of talking and telling their lies



while your tvs change stations

scroll messages, victims

and christians both drink in blood

and they pray for the destruction of all hatred

more often, just those with hate for us



cause it hurts when you discover

one's worse and one's better

to suffer or cause others to

and you can live by your conscience

now guilt is a concept

you're no longer subscribing to



there's a virgin in my bed

and she's taking off her dress

and I'm not sure what I am gonna do

there's a song stuck in my head

and I can't help singing it

but how I hope my singing pleases you

cause I am not who I've become

but what you'd made me into



oh got no health insurance

no cellular service

no disease they can cure

but we need more money to burn

so each person must learn

the dollar amount they are worth



and your pills make me dizzy

forgetting my body

I watch as it walks away

and I'll just keep drinking the poison

and smoking the cartons

a pack and a half a day



so when time comes to claim me

my friends and my family

will gather around my grave

and they'll believe that they knew me

and loved me and miss me

and all call me by my name



so imagine what you want

and then hold on to that thought

cause that's as close as it will ever come

and believe you're where you are

keep acting out the part

at the end of the day

the trees all get wheeled away

and you'll be standing alone

in a blank blank space-
