(Having trouble naming this one, somewhat of a distillation. Hinted about it on Myspace but couldn't copy/paste at the time. Slightly self-censored.)


I am the ice-cold whisper wonder creeping up your little spine
I am the death you die inside waiting for stars to just align�

Didja take their vision?
Didja shut up and listen?
Didja pray in the box with the **** on top?
Didja follow the path hoping it was good but inside you never really understood?
Recite for the grade; yeah; you�re the cream of the crop.
Vote along the party line, one liar or another, we�ll be just fine.

Stop; turn around; see what we made
A pretty, shiny sledge to the face
All the empires following the bullsh*t crown
So many good ideas broken down
Did you stand on your own
On principles that were you to the bone?
Are you on your knees just pointing and crying
Or charging into life as your own lion?

I come from the sun and I go to the dirt
I require no one to tell me what I�m worth
I worked within the system
Steeped my lens in wisdom
Til all I saw was mud
And all directions lead to blood
All we can see is the bullet and the knife
Pushed into the flesh by every way of life

Stop; turn around; see what we made
A pretty, shiny sledge to the face
All the empires following the bullsh*t crown
So many good ideas broken down
Did you stand on your own
On principles that were you to the bone?
Are you on your knees just pointing and crying
Or charging into life as your own lion?

Broken backs and beasts of burden
Mind-slaves, back in your place, you�ve earned it
Another theory, another institution
Another voice of suppression
Inbreeding intellectual delusion
The most advanced regression
I am the lion inside that knows your wrong from right
I say don�t f*ck over the others, now there, you saw the light
I am the death you die inside waiting for stars to just align�
I am the ice-cold whisper wonder creeping up your little spine
When you�..
