I got one!
Bring meaning to the meaningless
Excess is the American way
And to that I salute
The senselessness
Keeps the infinite far
Too far for us to obtain
Make me
Tase me
Take me away
Cuff me
Love me
Shut me out
Your gun and badge do not make you more than us
Symbol of conformity
And self denial
To go through the gates
To the other side
And for that I send you my condolences
Lock me in a prison
I’ll get out in time
I’ll be free where it counts
In my heart and my mind
While you’re locked outside
Telling me
Giving me orders
On how to act
On how to be
Am I out of control?
Yes
Okay, just checking
Alright, good
Once you’re out of the control
Of others
You learn to control yourself
Right and wrong
Yin and yang
Passion and rationale
Decline and growth
