I'm trying to fit these poems into melodies as I waste my life away in front of my TV. I've been sick now for a couple of weeks. The air I breathe plays hide and seek as I ice my eye before it swells shut. But no one could account for this. Just a boat ride from swimming with the fishes but I'll wade in the water that's outside my front door. But the one thing that we're not seeing is the state of our well being. Well all I could think of was you and the missed opportunities they were there too. Well looks can't get you everywhere but the one thing I've found to be unfair is the fact that they can get you anywhere at all. The fact that they can get you anywhere at all. Well I wish I looked like Rock Hudson. Then all these petty problems wouldn't have begun. Well looks can't catch you everywhere but the one thing I've found to be unfair is the fact that they can get you anywhere at all. The fact that they get can you anywhere at all.

They preach to us it is safe here. Nothing to worry about, nothing to fear. That story was just a scam written on your emotions. The same people who said doctors prefer camels over apples. They teach ignorance because they know it sells until we are all just shells with acidic insides and nowhere to confide because our apathy became their dollar signs. Flammable liquids spewing from facets. The horses have been losing weight. The birds die, but at least their pain is released. It's in the air. It's in the water. If we'd only care. We're the sons and daughters Of our mother. Individuals to cities in a matter of years, in a matter of months, in a matter of days. A defect to migration obscures the sight of manipulated mountain top memories. And they are dying. And we are. They say it has always been there. They say they had nothing to do with it. It was all just a matter of time. It was totally a natural occurrence what has happened in Centralia is happening to my family in Bradford and will happen in Philadelphia. But we are dying.

Black Fish 03:16
Flank the young. Get it away from its kin. Chop off the tongue. A sinking dorsal fin. They put the black fish in the water. Cut him off from all the surroundings. He played tricks for free, we became the enemy. We're overcome by waves. Washed away all our feelings. The people come from all over. They pay for what’s demanded He played tricks for me, I became the enemy. We're overcome by waves. The thrill of it sends us reeling.

What we do will last forever. Keep thinking it will get better. Even through the worst of weather, keep thinking it will get better. If we are able bodied and our mind is pure. Acknowledge what is lobbied, let the world know for sure. Sucked in by television screens results in bad Internet memes. A lack of a world productive and a look for girls who are seductive. Keep the folks at the bottom of the wrung. Isn't this why songs need to be sung? An ode to Social Darwinism. Keep 'em working towards those ten thousand hours. It’s a known disorder and we have the cure, but if they have the money, tell me whats that for? If we are able bodied and our mind is pure acknowledge what is lobbied let the world know for sure Its a known disorder and we have the cure, but if they have the money, tell me whats that for?
