The Rapidly Deteriorating Mental Health of a Failed Empire

No end in sight Afghanistan

Still burnin’ flags out in Iran

Chinese steel grip

The Fuhrer’s fist

Still poundin’ on the podium

As Appalachia still succumbs

To ethnic cleansing opium

Peace-keepin’ like a North Korean

Sleepin’ on a Puerto Rican

Leakin’ all the in between and

Still you people think he’s speakin’

For the huddled masses, middle classes?

Cuttin’ taxes

For the battle axes cashin’ in

On truth denial gasses

Maskin’ babies bodies buried in

The Stormy normalcy

And no apology for Johnny

See why Colin took a knee?

Or did you miss the racial murders

Every single fucking day

I guess you missed the homelessness

Or the unequal gender pay

And when the kids take to the streets

You shut them up with adderall

Then seal them up behind a wall

Until their world’s a shopping mall

And then the Columbine each time

A new disorder

Breaks the mind

Until the Nero anti-hero

Comes to muse of its decline
