Walking in America Walking underwater from the waist-down With a head full of quicksand I’m among the few remaining souls Left to burst and burn in this wasteland, purgatorial As newspaper editorials camouflage me in a whirlwind And the remains of everyone I’ve ever known and loved sting my eyeballs What will be my grand undoing? Talking to thineself As I embark on a quest where free will is His divine’s bile duct Was all of this at His behest? And all of the survivors now share a common theory: Hell is outer space where nothing happens Heaven is this dreary place- Heaven is chaos I need some sea and sand and land to curl up and protect myself in But even if I outstretch with no bullets flying at me The bugs and weird fishes will probably kick me off their property
