Listener - Winter Life lyrics

God Blessed America with a
Money making scheme
Let's all prostitute a tragedy
Give it a universal theme
Your as evil as maleficent
Smiling at the feeling you get
When the ice-cycles pierce through
Your chest and arteries
But it’s the moment of revelation
That I revel in
When the heat of understanding
Melts your oppressors
And leaves holes for windows for all
To gawk at your discarded dreams
Rapid eye moving far away from
Your aggressors and foes
On stage your life is
A mellow dramatic kabuki
And in my opinion you've dressed yourself
In the most attractive kimono
Acting out the part of an
MC saying poetry so meaningful
And when you're not around yourself you’ve
Managed to erase self without help
I see thousands of sponges emaciated
Into piles of gun powder
Threatening suicide which in turn
Would kill this guy
Dried up from a drought of
Rain to fill insides
Can you see them searching on hands and knees
Looking for the first thing to pour
Into their chapped parched brains
Washed into the shallows
Content with just being knee deep
What am I trying to say? what
Are you trying to listen to?
It's not my fault this media has
Made it to your home
And is now permeating through
Your living room maybe I'm just a poser and
Everyone else is for real
Or maybe I really do measure up short
And all this time I thought I had to kneel
This frostbite is starting to
Cause permanent damage
