Caustic Soda Typical Observation Song
Thousands of people question their lives everyday and
they come up with different answers based on what is
important them. If they cant reach the goals that they
have set, lack of drive or means, or just dont know yet
it becomes harder to find a reason to sow the next seed.
Some turn to God. Some turn to substance abuse. Some turn
on the TV and soak up the useless information, which
washes over them endlessly. Theres a lot of us drowning
in it. What about me well, I'm OK. I can stand up here
chanting to you all day (I'll always stupidly think that
I have something worthwhile to say!). But what those who
jus't cant stand it, not because they're weak but they
just dont understand the life dictated to them by
society. Knock, knock. Gods not here. And their beer
can't blur things forever so they just endeavour to be .
. . But when exactly did we get told to live our lives
accordingly? We just got thrown in the deep end. Its sink
or swim. Young and alone in the swell with no direction.
Where the hell is that pearly white angel when you need
him? Checked my shoulder, just traces of where his claws
had been. 65 year old woman hoarding cans from a garbage
bin. Plastered to the asphalt, a sad, wet feather fallen
from his wing. 25 year old executive at a pay phone got
his wife to ring and the girl right next to him . . . has
got her frail white hand stuck down a drain, grasping for
a twenty cent piece that she desperately needs to get
home on the last train. We pretend not to see it. Im so
scared to believe it a parents death away from living the
same way and I dont want any part of it. Middle class
ignorance deliver me from it.
