Tired of Crying

I'm so tired of cryin; for the sake of someone else
So tired of cryin, my heart can't take much else,
So I build a wall to shelter this cold and battered heart
And I'll break it down myself when grief I am without.
Liberation must be fought for
So weapons I must wield
With words as my sword
And song as my shield
Oh I'm so sick of cryin
Feeling sorry for myself
Oh I'm so done with cryin
I must do something else.

This Existence

I used to feel so certain about my future and my desires
But now the older I get I throw my hands up and surrender
I seek solace and liberation in my own historical education
And yet I'm still met with the same damn depression.
How long has this been going on, this capitalist oppression?
How long has it been poisoning the minds of every single human?
Too long for it to change hearts in just one generation
And let me tell you I don't have any hope and No, I'm not having children.
Who needs prison walls when we are bound by corporations?
Who needs barbed wire when we are wound by consumerism?
Who needs courts when we all judge one another?
Who needs cops when we speak violently to each other?
Who needs hugs when their drugs on every corner?
Who needs friendship when we have the almightly dollar?
Who needs love when we possess all our lovers tell me who's really free,
In this existance?
Who's really free in this existance?
Who's really free? Who?

So you think you're pretty confident that you're baby's by you're side and you're future's content.
With all you're luck, you couldn't give a fuck if you lost your pet just to lose your mind.
Yeah, you think you've seen it all before so you lock the door and you cry cry cry. You wanna commit suicide cause she left you on your own.
NO! NO! NO!
Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you
Love you Love you Love you Love you
Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you Fuck you
Love you Love you Love you Love you
Yeah you think you've seen it all before you so you lock the door and you cry cry cry. You wanna commit suicide cause he left you on your own.
Embrace the clouds
Embrace the gutter
Embrace the clouds
Embrace the gutter

In 1901 Leon Cholgov assassinated President McKinley and he said he did it for the people and in response Emma Goldman said, "All the people are Asleep. They forge their own chains to do the bidding of their masters, crucifying their own christs."

Narcissus

Narcissus dry your eyes
You're better off with an ugly face
His lost dungeon
His lost dungeon laugh
Once her ghost echo
Once her ghost echo
His lost dungeon laugh once her ghost echo
His lost dungeon laugh once her ghost echo
And all at once you're subject to inspire
The face in the lake, the object of desire
Then all at once you're subject to inspection
The face in the lake the object of rejection
Narcissus dry your eyes
Your better off with an ugly face

Here it comes again, that feeling.
Here it comes again, that feeling.
That burning yearning biting grinding feeling
Keeps getting stronger
That burning yearning biting grinding feeling
Keeps getting stronger
Burning and yearning and biting and grinding and
Burning and yearning and biting and grinding
Whoa! Whoa! Can you resist?
Whoa! Whoa! Can you resist?
Whoa! Whoa! Can you resist?
Whoa! Whoa! Can you resist?
