Cacophony of Anger

from One Small Voice by Heir Apparent

/

lyrics

Somehow, somewhere, someone
Sold me the wrong set of dreams
Like a rag doll in careless hands
I come apart at the seams

Like a willow I'm bending -an actor pretending
The script I've been given is true
Like a child that is force-fed
I'm throwing this shit back at you

Anger and fury my anger and fury my
Anger and fury my anger and fury my
Wall of anger -My cacophony
(spoken)

...Thus the antediluvian quest of mind over matter
is bequeathed to my benighted self...
Bedaubed and besmirched, the panglos eventually concedes
to the necrosis of hard realities, shrieking in anger -and then silent.
Finding no other course, I laugh at the Sisyphean punchline
at the end of another day...

Neon and screens were my feeling machines
No wonder I feel like a fool
I'm a fire of resentment with media methane as fuel

My soul and the soles of my shoes both have holes
Still somehow I get through the sorrow
Two pairs of socks and a shot in the arm 'til tomorrow

Wall of anger -My cacophony...
