Dreaming

They need to know

By BrenPublished 3 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read
A Chair

the delusions are many and varied

from one end of time to the other

false attributions and blatant outright lies

as you thieve and feed one another

tell 'em they're dreaming

tell 'em they need to wake up

tell 'em we know they are scheming

and just making that shit up

it's not my job to provide instances

don't mistake my lack of care for hope

the consequence of your fictitious burdens

are only outweighed by your cope

tell 'em they're dreaming

tell 'em we're onto the rort

tell 'em that the innocent

should never fear being caught

sick of being force fed the lies

all the time everywhere everyday

when the only truth there really is

is how they lost their way

tell 'em they are truly fucking dreaming

getting high on their own supply

and emboldened by their fallacies

willing participants in servitude to the lie!
