If I can't feel
On a given day
The way I wanted to
The temptation hits
My grip it could slip
I could give it up
But if I can't feel
On a given day
The way I wanted to
I won't cheapen myself
I won't be patronized by lethargy
It would be nice to answer
Questions with a capsule
But I don't deem myself that simple minded
It would be nice to untie
Knots with single gestures
But I keep on drawing blood
It would be nice to think
Oblivion was a challenge
Instead of an excuse
Yourself
A socio-cultural trap
Launched an attack on your subconscious Ruby Ridge
If you get what you want
You can't play Hamlet to the balcony
It would be nice to answer
Questions with a capsule
But I don't deem myself that simple minded
It would be nice to untie
Knots with single gestures
But I keep on drawing blood
The ultimate expression of consumerism
The wholesale
Commodification
Of sensation
The ultimate rejection of asceticism
The doors of
Perception
Kicked in
The ultimate acceptance of conservatism
A fierce pa**ion
Corrupted
And subsumed
The ultimate bisection of ethicalism
As you imbibe
The denial
Of choice
The ultimate acceptance
Of conservatism
The ultimate rejection
Of ethicalism
If I can see straight I can't lie
Let's put an end
To this falsehood
To the conception
That this is different
Misunderstood
And misconstrued
Alternative
In vocabulary
You leave the office
On a friday
One glazed expression
For another
48 hours
In elaborate
Gilded costumes
The masquerade
Warehouse
