lyrics

another suited man in sixties soft lines
leans his back into a cadillac
where the stammering cross-hairs arrived
another pistolf flashing
another needle dropping
thousands more
piling on thousands more
will slump too
because of what you thought you saw
the sights and sighs and cries go to elements
everywhere on this canvas
where i'll end
in this bubble
the savaged flesh displayed
like a monument to slaves
in spotlights on a stage
for the grieving mothers
another suited man in grainy ghost grey
his juddering carriage is set upon
by the most righteous subservience
another pistol flashing
another needle dropping
a wrecking ball
started at bullet small
for murdering the murderers of murderers
all the centuries they'll fill with sleep
keep stretching out
the sights and sighs and cries go to elements
everywhere on this canvas
where i'll end
in this bubble
the savaged flesh displayed
like a monument to slaves
in spotlights on a stage
for the grieving mothers
