Title: Protecting Us From Ourselves By Oldrottenhead
Post by: Oldrottenhead on March 24, 2025, 12:35:39 PM
Was messing about with my Harley Benton Telecaster on my spark 2 practice amp and this one came to me.

It is what it is.

We're caught in the flow
With no way out
It's all a lie
Or so it seems
We play our parts
Act out our roles
With no direction
Who's to know

It's a trap
A slow bleed
We're hungry
Wi nothing to eat
We all wear suits
Like uniforms
Like armour
Protecting us
From ourselves

We hide ourselves
Behind our screens
Between the cracks
Beyond the pale
But maybe there's
A way to feel
A way to be
A new ideal
Protecting Us From Ourselves
