Feathers & Lips

I'll never understand that old butcher mentality: The warrior, the brave, the hero Bully, coward I'm filled with this overwhelming instinct that I can break you: Shredded ligaments, bone by bone by bone C'mon rough-rider, you want to hurt me, so bad? You’re just a mouth piece for cruelty and greed; Always the perfect "man" A malice of forethought - there are strength in lies Too many terrible things, but no, I will not yield Let's document a moment that never happened Just look at him admiring his excess Intensely pointless unhappiness And that wasn't a rhetorical question, that was bait A collection of weaknesses; conditioned unfurling hate A malice of forethought - there are strength in lies Too many terrible things, but no, I will not yield No one is laughing clown No one is laughing clown Religious zealot, fundamentalist radical No one is laughing clown Oh, a furious breed
