Western Medicine

Hand in hand, and side by side Line by line we march to die Board the ark two of a kind What's the price we put on our lives Questions and contradictions in perfect rhyme Cut my hands with the tears on your smile A lifelong joke without the punchline Specimens of grander schemes whilst earth is downsized We can burn the body bags once the pockets are lined Western medicine spreads like flies With euthanasia embedded in their spines The skin of the earth tires of their bite How many bees died in the hive Build paper asylums that scrape the sky Vow obedience as you're sterilised Under holes in the sky once the stars align Clandestine games under sheets of white Set apart by great divides Creation and intervention start to collide As the matter collapsed, we fell inside You're dammed if you don't, you're dammed if you try Announce to the world that we're still fine Slumped over the only tree for miles Another heretic to crucify You're hate will always be my guide Painful repetition in a flawed design Such sights to see through schizophrenic eyes A stark reminder that free thought's a lie There are no good thoughts, to change my mind You cant shut out what's already inside Call me Paranoid, the visions always thrive Don't underestimate the faith in this disguise There are no good thoughts, but at least they're mine
