Red Tank! - Seattle (Elegy of Fractured Personhood) lyrics

ELEGY OF FRACTURED PERSONHOOD / FLAGRANT LOCALISM I am sitting in seattle Just waiting to bear fruit Ripped from my insides Or mangled at the root And everybody's waiting For someone else to save them Do you really need that patronage Dingy hospital doors open Faster than the DIY gates Riding on the backs of knights Of the apocalypse And we are all waiting for Some kind of revelation To be emblazoned; Xs on our hands and Ss on our chest And we're all getting older Not necessarily better Reflections of our footsteps Pa**ing through voyeurs in our palms And we are all stooped over Contorted bodies waiting Ripe for untangling Or anxiously keeling over If we're all just waiting To be harnessed in the mainframe Will we ultimately be left Sputtered on the ground? If our hierarchy of needs Is simply fractured or inverted How many weeks Can we spend starving in the streets And if we're all just waiting Already underground How many years will it take To be raised from the dead Our souls all manifested In perfect equilibrium I guess that's why hegel's Just a hack Screaming and insinuating Might just breed metamorphosis If we don't end up as cybernetic vermin Are you a partial person Who's just so sick of waiting Or are you meant to be somebody else And I am still thinking About how things went last night Which matrices or rubrics Might apply And how you really just can't Break new ground when there's pavement You need to plant your seeds In fertile ground
