Asphy, for whatever reason, it has double posted the thread once more. Delete the other one, obviously, and sorry for the annoyance (again).

[quote]i live in a right-handed left-brained world
and i'm a left-handed right-brained being
so if in every way i lose, then i know what to choose
my choice is to let go ("it's only after you've lost everything
that you're free to give everything") so i let go

all the fight within my left hand is killed
i walk around without a fist clenched
but my hand is open and ready to accept yours

it's all just a dead sea, sometimes a red sea
full of the blood of ceaseless repetition
of war-sick violence as the church bell tolls

the right side of my brain may as well be amputated
(and cremated to dreamy ashes floating away in the wind)
the world is a right-handed dying dream
(so wake me, wake me up) it's all about control

time is always over me like a raven
the seconds tick away on my skin
crawl into my head and lay eggs

the roads show me where to drive
an endless tongue that tastes me
and knows i taste like everything else

school indoctrinates and innoculates
showing me there's only one true way
that imagination has to die

this order i desire to disorder
(it's all about control)
so i've hit bottom, and where i have to go
is only to go further than bottom can go

so march on the happy people of the world
with your mass-produced smiles
with your cellophane pre-packed purchased selves

so march on, the happy people of the world
with your [i]pans et circenses[/i]
with your endless worker-consumer spiral

my left hand pens these lines
your world breaks them
as i march among you [/quote]
