Stagnation Nation




Progress in the name of stagnation
gladly consuming across the nation
a place to eat, sleep, and hide
to the powers that be they confide
their loyalty and security
mutiny in the souls of absent Divinty
placing trust in the absence of Truth
the parameters of Wisdom held in a truce of convenience and desire
sucking souls dry never awoken by the fire


The fire in their hearts turned to ice
an ice age perpetuated by a sensuously cryptic vice
sleepwalkers in a dreamt up world partake in the slice of life
getting instead the strife that comes with spiritual death
suffocated by the devil's breath
coming up for air only in times of need
the woes of greed lead them to the promissed land
I promiss you absolute freedom now take my hand
and as we walk to the sands of the desert I say
for everything that you own you must pay
looking up at the Sun in reverence of the new day
will enliven your spirit even though you stray
a stray dog inherits the world as his home
wandering from place to place alone
without memory and purpose I bid you farewell
and with that being said I'll exit with a quiet yell...
