shut the ballet down....
revered words for all to
follow
don't put it in your mouth
if you don't plan to swallow
greedy hands for apathetic
plans
three-piece suits meat wide
demands
hardened atmospheres collapse
upon you
if it fits, then wear the
shoe
raped yourself of all integrity
this mindless mask for all
to see
if i've told you once
i've told you twice
don't slit yourself to
cut your life
quiet now before the storm
hits
run and find shelter while
the clock still ticks
you can bury your head deep
beneath the sand
wallow in your grief despite
the man
house of glass you've built
to sleep
a short fuse, so the nerve
runs deep
and they shine so clean
despite soiled ways
prove to me that some crime
pays
don't slit yourself!
