pray for a new state
pray for communication
i can hope, see
even if i don't believe
and
i believe
i think
i don't know
history will show
our progress is slow
when we win
we win in inches
the future deaf
so the few left
will need a fist
when no one will listen
know where we stand
know we pay the man
it's my flag
it's my flag
know i'm not kneeling
know what i'm feeling
my god above
or total lack of
but
i lack...
i think...
i don't know
pray for a new state
pray for assassination
i can hope, see
even if i don't believe
well i believe
i think
i don't know
well my faith is barren
i don't believe the prayer
and it's not a sin
and it's not opinion
know i'm a man
know where i stand
in an affront
to god and country
so pray for a new state
pray for assassination
i can hope, see?
even if i don't believe
and
i believe
i think

Inspired by: The realization this morning (not dreaming, but not quite awake) that it's been 204 days since a humane, instrospective man in great pain did something profound and flawed. And later, I will go by the statue again. It will be raining.
