lyrics

on a tightrope again
trying to stay moderate
the party lines on which youre walking gerrymand it all
fear of man, fear of falling keep you shackled to a wall
suspended above the void
trying to keep from falling in
margins of historic boundries
keep you on a string
puppets of their own causes
on a broken bridge in swing
is there no other option?
to jump ship and dive on in?
the void needs illumination
to see whats really within
dark ages of fear
are still alive and right here
xenophobic monsters in us
shadows in a cave
to hunt a witch to hunt demons
to scapegoat and to save
will we ever make amense?
with the void inside us all?
can we ever trust to cut our ties?
can we learn to trust and fall?
this tightrope is a noose
this tightrope is a tether
to dystopia, colonization
the structures that be
to nations, and civilization
and global pagentry
will there ever be an end?
are we cursed to push this boulder?
up the seven layers of hell?
are we cursed to be destroyers?
