Of Knife Fights and Hypocrites

from The Act and Art of Breathing [2011] by Jupiter's Incense

/

lyrics

I’m sick of false pretenses
And the fashion show of endless smiles
Of hair dye and facial piercings that line your face
They line your face

I’m so exhausted by the bigotry
Two-facedness and hypocrisy
The utter lack in self-respect
That underlines the means to live

Properly outside of a shell
Where the sun casts her crooked gaze
And people smile and exchanged words
Of meaning, not loathing

I long for a reality
In which the only flags you fly
Are bleached with the colors
You keep locked inside
The scapegoat you only wish you could be.

They say the grass is always greener
On the other side, despite the fact
That where I walk it’s always just the same
Plastic faces and lengthy cheekbones

And that acrid smell of decaying truth
Is only rivaled by the stench
Of your fickle narcissistic cardboard “skills”
