Automatic Minds

Contrast between life and war

Birth and disease

A father lies awake fighting his own sanity

Raise a kid or battle brains

Dawn a f**king cloak and rattle chains

Take your sickle with you

When you go grocery shopping

Forty strollers rust

In a field of dead poppies

The difference between you and I is

Automatic minds and conditioned lives

Dangerous lives and and complacent lies

Lies lies lies lies lies lies

Lies lies lies

Lies

Lies

Lies

Lies

Six miles away past the opiate fields

The banker mortician dine

On appropriate meals

Of asyphixation and taxes

They belch as they eat

The minute hands and

Maggots get stuck in their teeth

I'm walikng razor edges

You're trading two by fours

I'm leaning over edges

To catolog razor roars
