Look Down
We’re tough and able, quite indefatigable
At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy
But listen closely:
In my mind,
Madness takes its toll.
I’m an earth just waiting to quake.
My heart is stone.
Look down.
It’s astounding
Inside your mind
This trophy
Threatened once more
And I’ve got a feeling someone’s gonna be cutting the thread.
Look down.
I’m helpless.
I’m past patiently waitin’
I’m passionately smashin’
Every expectation,
But the elephant is in the room,
And here he comes like Don Juan
Something’s familiar about these strangers like me
As we stumble
Bumble,
Fumble,
Plumble-
A slave of the law.
Look down.
