"I could have been someone
...well so could anyone" - fairytale of new york

A smile with rotten teeth

Resented on the scene

Mostly for calling it a scene

they're doing the best art punk

Singing lessons can buy

"A Sellout who failed"

Yet this circle jerk is as much about
Exclusion as it is inclusion

There is no US if there is no THEM

Resenting abstractions, they forget

It can be mutual

A hallelujah song of the dream inside there has been a storm.   You're the bread of this church... in gratitude, I drink the wine. there is a fire but hope hurts. You're a light leading the blind.   Your music is a heartfelt drum like a war-cry fighting darkness. Victory rests on your tung. Your wet labor will bear witness.   The reflecting light of the moon though it is the light's glory between your legs, I am consumed... by the grace of g...
