Dinosauria, We, Born like this Into this, As the chalk faces smile, As Mrs. Death laughs, As the elevators break, As political landscapes dissolve, As the supermarket bag boy holds a college degree, As the oily fish spit out their oily prey, As the sun is masked,
We are, Born like this, Into this, Into these carefully mad wars, Into the sight of broken factory windows of emptiness, Into bars where people no longer speak to each other, Into fist fights that end as shootings and knifings,
Born into this, Into hospitals which are so expensive that it’s cheaper to die, Into lawyers who charge so much it’s cheaper to plead guilty, Into a country where the jails are full and the madhouses closed, Into a place where the masses elevate fools into rich heroes,
Born into this, Walking and living through this, Dying because of this, Muted because of this, Castrated, Debauched, Disinherited, Because of this, Fooled by this, Used by this, Pissed on by this, Made crazy and sick by this, Made violent, Made inhuman, By this,
Born into this, The heart is blackened, The fingers reach for the throat, The gun, The knife, The bomb, The fingers reach toward an unresponsive god, The fingers reach for the bottle, The pill, The powder,
Born into this, The heart is blackened, The fingers reach for the throat, The gun, The knife, The bomb, The fingers reach toward an unresponsive god, The fingers reach for the bottle, The pill, The powder,
