the corners we've run back into
the corners we've run back into grow ever smaller and tight
its no wonder small defeats
are made into some kind of victory.
survival charms its way
into nothing more than getting by
we take whatever they hand out
no respect no dignity
what we cant afford we cant have
we'll take whatever we can get
the rules and the fears we live by
cant bear the sight of the monsters we've made
bar the windows and shut the door
we live while our mistakes wage war...
to escape the endless days
of neglect and decay
products unmade.
left to rot in the dank holes we've made.
