I'M THE FORGOTTEN
WERE IN A PLACE SO DARK YOU CAN HARDLY SEE
NO MATTER THE MATTER THAT SPLITS THE WORDS I BREATH
AND AS THE RAIN DRIPS ACIDIC QUESTIONS AROUND ME,
I BLOCK OUT THE SIGHTS OF THE POWERS THAT BE,
AN DUCK AWAY INTO THE DARKNESS
TIMES UP I WHIND UP IN A RUSTED WORLD WITH EYES SHUT
SO TIGHT THAT IT BLURS INTO A WORLD OF PRETND
AND THESE EYE EASE OPEN AND ITS DARK AGAIN...
LISTEN TO THE SOUND
IM DIZZY FROM THE UPS AND DOWNS
NAUSIATED BY THE POLLUTED ROCK THATS ALL AROUND
WATCHEN THE WHEELS OF CARS THAT GO PAST IN THE LAST LIGHT IN THE LIGHT AND THE LONG SHADOW IS CAST
A WINDOW GROWS
CATCHES THE EYE AND CRIES OUT A YELLOW LIGHT AS IT PASSES ME BY
A YOUNG SHADOWY FIGURE SITS IN FRONT OF A BAR
INSIDE A BUILDING OF ROCK WITH ANTENNAS ON TOP
NOW NOTHING CAN STOP IN THIS LAND OF PAIN
THE SANE LOOSE NOT KNOWIN THEY ARE PART OF THE GAME
AND WHILE THE INSIDE CHANGE, THE BOX STAYS THE SAME
As the figure as i can bear anybodys name
the memories i keep are from a time like then
i put them on paper so i can come back to them
someday im hopeing to close my eyes and pretend
that this crumpled up paper can be perfect again
IM STANDING AT THIS PODIUEM TALKING
THIS CEREMONIAL OFFSPRING
DEDICATED TO URBAN DYSFUNCTIONAL OFFSPRING
CITY GOVERNMENT INTERNALLY NAPPIN
TRAPPIN
GRITY COVENANT CAUSING URBAN COLLAPSE
FILLING THESE LOST SOULS WITH DARK HOLEWS
GET MORE THAN YOUR CAR STOLE
SOME HEARTS BEAT BLACKER THAN CHARCOAL
THIS SOCIETYS DEPREVATION DEPENDS NOT ON OUR DIFFERENCES
BUT THE SEPERATION WITHIN
NO REPERATION IS MADE
LIMITED AID AND MINIMUM WAGE
LIVING IN A TENAMENT CAGE WHERE VENDORS ARE PAID
TRADGY WITHIN A PARADY
DARKNESS OVER SPREADS LIKE A PERMENANT PLAGUE
I'M THE FORGOTTEN....
