“LOVE AND APOCALYPSE” 08 April 04.

Here we are again
We are ripe for our lynching
Our heroes will become villans
The world it still turns
With the truth unpeeled
Our inner thoughts revealed
And the paranoid government knows
Everybody wants to change them
Here it comes
Your email read
In the public interest
To prevent something happening
To prevent all these things
And we can only protest
The dark actors never rest
But business must win out
Over the facts and our survival
There is nowhere else to go
The New American Century
This is all that exists
An office
A paycheck
And starving millions
And the four cannons of Battersea
We will fall into extinction like everything
The survival rate falls in time

And I love you more than the government will ever know
And I want you more than a polar bear needs snow
When this world dies. There will be nowhere else to go.
But I love you.

Life is for the lovers
The footprints of us in the snow
I’m waiting for life to happen
I’m waiting for love to unfold

But I love you
