m ross perkins - the new american laureate كلمات أغنية

i received me a letter
addressed to my full name
and stamped with initials

i noticed right away it was different
a window of plastic
very official

said, “dear my dear, you’ve been chosen
to carry the torch of the formerly frozen.”
so i went and bought me a musket
and drove to the statehouse
to offer my service

i have never felt anger
i’ve always been savory
and kind to my neighbor
i pay the little basket at church
every sunday and pray for
the blessing of favors
and now i’m a citizen soldier
i’m learning to k!ll as i grow older
and the sounds of children crying
have crossed my lips and taste delicious

what has become of me
a power beyond me’s no longer above me
and now as i sit here and smile it’s
for visions of violence
vicious and silent

peace has washed up upon me
like the warmth of a blanket
when i was a baby

speak me not a truth
tell me not a number
call me not lazy

i am reciting the lines on the ticker in lockstep
nothing concerning
what was once unmoving
what once was sleeping
i see it turning

what has become of me
a power beyond me’s no longer above me
and now as i sit here and smile it’s
for visions of violence
vicious and silent
vicious and silent

- m ross perkins
