Patch

From political to not giving a fuck.
No matter who it’s just more dumb rot.
Spinning in circles without a pause.
One raises taxes then the next goes for more.
Without any sense of where it will end.

All I want is peace and quiet.
Too much noise for where I now lay.
Division and aggravation are not places I wish to be.

Another tragedy that didn’t need to occur.
Some double down while others go free.
What is this state we find ourselves in?
Looks like humanity has gone lukewarm again.
Pity rationality doesn’t come to the fore.

All I want is peace and quiet.
Too much noise for where I now lay.
Division and aggravation are not places I wish to be.

This might be selfish or perhaps bordering on rude.
But truth is I am simply sick of this mood.
It’s all a torture process played out in real time.
Violence begets violence like a fictional line.
But if it was fiction it would be above board.
Instead this is reality that continues to act like a fraud.

Get up, get out and run away.
Not for me this ravenous society.
Step up, back down but never commit.
Seems like all the good ones have already quit.

And that’s no surprise.
Hope scorched from the insides.
Blackened without a chance to regrow.
And so I say it’s time for me to focus on my own patch of Earth in Sol.

Words are so cheap.
Much like the lies.
Speaking in rotations.
Leave these falsehoods behind.

All I want is peace and quiet.
Life of my own.
Still guarding my future.
No division or aggravation will frequent where I roam.
