A Body To The Pile

I wrote this years ago, and it\'s not written from my perspective. Meaning the lyrics don\'t refer to me (I can\'t stand poems like that... sorry. It just seems vain to me), it\'s taking the point of veiw of the \"character\". And it\'s a song, not a poem, by the way. The meaning is pretty clear to me, but that\'s easy to say considering I wrote it, but I\'ll leave it up to your interpretation :)

Disclamer: I own it, don\'t reproduce without written permission (as if you\'d want to. heh.), blar blar...




A Body To The Pile

the bodies of the city are like a whirlwind

taking the street by storm

an ugly array of humanity

the bodies of the out lying areas

are like a disease

absolute in their ways

these days will never change

It\'s one more body to the pile

and there is no way you\'re escaping

this fate we all share

It\'s something we all face

if you can fathom you\'re all ready there

gone before your time

and no one can care

the people stop and stare

the people walk on by

the people are so sick

I wish for them all to die

the people can ignore

the people can forget

the people can\'t avoid

the fate that we all get

It\'s one more body to the pile

and there is no way your escaping

cause we all walk this sad mile;

this fate that we all share

It\'s something we all face

if you can fathom you\'re all ready there

gone before your time

and no one can really care

and no one cares
