The Garroter |
Lone hunter in the fray of the lonely fading light |
A manifest for the garroter stuck to his plight |
Young and elder, never mind |
Programmed mortal, set lifeline |
A mother says no and father cracks a simple plan |
A knife is sharpened, his children run but he’ll advance |
Alas, how fragile life can be |
Love is strong when death foresees |
Yet the story won’t end here |
No, oh no, oh no |
Ulterior motive, the grinning face of leadership |
A selfish wish to control a nation in his grip |
Strong against weak and immobilized |
Secular for fascist lies |
The beautiful people look down from ruby vantage points |
While in the gutter, starvation invites us to join |
Barricades of wealthy youth |
Protesting their inborn truth |
