The Spectator |
On your knees, look at yourself, a corporation cog with a head |
No original thought, a product of things, that consume your will, |
and define your dreams |
When you were young, you took on the world, remember how you’d laugh and sing? |
You’ve replaced it all with an IRA, internet porn, and a job you hate |
Spectator on your own life |
Watching and cheering goodbye |
Sinking into endless night |
Serving your slave design |
Giving in without a fight |
Passion resonates no more |
A goal that never comes in sight |
Til they close the coffin door |
Fenced-in yard, that screen on your wall, books on the shelf, you never have |
read |
Suburban right turns, amassing your wealth, a middle-class pawn, |
in love with himself |
Lock the doors, set the alarm, another weekend, alone in your head |
The kids are out drunk, the wife’s in bed, pop a few pills to forget again |
Spectator on your own life |
Watching and cheering goodbye |
Sinking into endless night |
Serving your slave design |
Giving in without a fight |
Passion resonates no more |
A goal that never comes in sight |
Til they close the coffin door |
Inside your homemade prison, an average life lived and died |
Rules deftly followed |
Boss' ass, firmly kissed |
Bound in by possessions |
…And overpowering emptiness |
