Falling Down - Jehst

Drinking in electric lady land

Conversate with the crazy man

Where the babies sip babycham

And dames babysit Damien

Plagued by the everyday pain of a pantomime palladium

Playin' games, guilt weighing on your cranium

Prayin' on a path of pre-destined devastation

They’re dishin out medication in many forms

I meditate on millennium metaphors

A tour-de-force of fornication

A thought-police state dictates to the whores of a sleaze nation

Discreet segregation

Infinite degrees of separation, we celebrate creation

Creating new means of our destruction

De-sensitised to the violence, the carnage is cartoon

It’s Televised to your front room

Guns boom, pictures that poison the young

We’re highly strung

A slugfest for the scum

But I ain t givin up cause I’m driven by the drum in drunken tongues

I talk up at the sun but I ain t givin up

Nah

Rain clouds breakdown my cardboard wall of sound

And now nobody hears when I’m calling out

It’s like they cover their ears

Say my tears are the tears of a clown

Please help me

I’m falling down

My silver tongue spits gold bars

Bring an amber glow to cold hearts

Show love to my close spars

Living their lives so fast

While our foes slow dance with Diablo

Most can’t cope with the agro, watchin' the rats grow

Led astray by a modern day pied piper in a lab coat

It’s code red, white lines blue movies

And media scapegoats provoke defence

I vent fears with a broken pen

And shed tears for the hopeless

Approaching the future with a clear focus

Frozen below the mushroom clouds

And we’re much too loud to be allowed to speak out

Cause the people might freak out

A free man with his hands tied, died buried below the landslide

Rigged by the sidewinders

Wise to the way that the lies are applied as a social science

To those who show signs of defiance

The fire burns

We learn ways to survive as the world turns

Look away from the flames as the fire burns

We learn ways to survive
