What I'm not

from Superschizophrenic by Infant King

lyrics

You want an honest answer, go find the honest man.
You seek to be forgiven, go find the purest soul –
there’s a cure for your broken heart.

I’m a skeleton without a backbone,
a pillar of salt with a heart of stone.
I am homeless in my only home,
I’m the digital age, I’m a soldier in a drone war.

I’m a legal case with six billion precedents.
I’m a tyrant – but I’m innocent.
A gold-digger with a shovel in my hands.
The ugly truth with the face of a president.

An anarchist bowing to the rule of law.
I’m a three-headed hellhound watching your backdoor.
I’m a jealous ex-girlfriend keeping the score.
I’m a military force and I’m ready for more.

I’m not speechless!
We just don’t choose to talk.

I’m a lunatic – I am love and I’m hate.
I’m a humanist – I am hunter and bait.
I’m a beggar and a head of state.
I’m the last living legend accepting my fate.

I’m a child soldier praying for sleep.
A pool of blood for your naked feet.
A dying shark sinking deeper and deeper and deeper.
I’m the God of all people saying “fuck the people”.

I’m not speechless!
We just don’t choose to talk.

The pain that we feel each and every day -
the pills that we take, they don’t take it away.
The lies that we tell us are what makes us stay.
Today, baby blue, everything is OK.

I’m not speechless!
We just don’t choose to talk.
