A Perfect Mess
The Fireside Wake

I'm finding out more and more every day every god damn day That trusting people is like crumpling up money And throwing it away The things they do and the things they say Often contradict with the seraphic character They traipse around on display Now I'm not asking that people go out of their way to change their tune God no! They're born from scoundrels suckers whores and thieving raccoons The distortion's so deep that I'm convinced not a one of us is immune But with a bit of luck a raging meteor will crash into the planet soon And all you are to me is a joke that no one gets Would you give it a rest? I'm not impressed And all these sentient beings they're ill-conceived at best It's so grotesque you're a perfect mess So while you sat idly as your time just passes you by You've taken to criticizing others' lives because you refuse to try It's kinda pathetic what makes you tick what makes you thrive That your measure of prosperity Must be in direct competition with mine Climb up the ladder out the bottle And meet the good old boys at the top Raise the stakes higher fuel the fire And start a landslide that can't be stopped Meanwhile the infantry scatters dreams are shattered And we've paid off all the cops To fight the wrong fights your god isn't right Black and red to the last drop And all our hopes and dreams are shattering at best So we settle for less that's as good as it gets So I guess we'll say "we should be lucky to be this blessed" I gotta confess it's a perfect mess
