here we go again

Empty factories to the east and all our waste

The shape of things that came shows on the broken workers

face


To the west you'll find our silicon promised lands

where


Machines replace our minds for systematic profit

plans




The course of human progress staggers like a

drunk


Its steps are quick and heavy and its mind is slow and

blunt


I look for optimism but I just dont know

Its seeds are planted in a poison place where nothing

grows




Its 1989 stand up and take a look around

Weathers bitter tension it seems is sinking down

Drunk with power and fighting one another

Every hour shows the winter getting harder



Theres a freezeup coming



One nation stands the tallest radiating blinding

light


Plastic and fluorescent energy robbing us of

sight


Set in our way content with our decay

We wave the flag of freedom as we conquer and

invade


Ever ask yrself wheres my place in this hell

But no ones there to tell you cuz they dont know that

themselves


The well rehearsed lines from our elated

politicians


No longer offer solace we can see the self

destruction




Just one political song to drop into the list

That is years and years long
