The Broken Branches

another natural disaster

a greedy little mouth to feed

a season to die faster

a reason for the earth to bleed

every gated up suburban home

confines the genealogy

of a skull to fill the catacombs

and hang down from the family tree

we're scarred and beat down through the skin

we're drunk and always stumbling

blind ignorance and power-lust

gestated the americas

it's all a greedy-ocracy

every ogma veils hypocrisy

sycophantic docile robot clowns

they'll kick you when they know that you are down!

the broken branches

the shattered glasses

the avalanches

the more i learn the less i know

the more i reap the less i sow

the streets are paved with epitaphs

sink the lifeboat, burn the raft

cast your stones, we'll cast a song

life's a dream, there's nothing wrong

go thump your bibles, pray for us

but fuck you and your fucking judgement bus

the broken branches

the shattered glasses

the avalanches

(and) the branches sag beneath the weight

the branches break

(and) the branches sag beneath the weight

the branches break beneath the weight

the weight
