A Descent

If I were to ask you What you are And what you believe in Could you tell me? Without that look in your eye And say truly That you know? For the older I get The more I dissect To deflect and derive The source of my failings To the point that I am Mere experiment (Read embarrassment) But in analysis lies growth And in analysis lies joy, and pain, and folly Contemplative, contradicting, explanations (Deliberations) That lead only to further confusion, loss of sense of self and alienation 'Cause by 25 I'd cut it up into so many pieces That the solvent in my petri dish had eaten it's way through Through the sample And those filters I'd relied on To tell the difference between black and white Art and shite Have melted together in the sunlight And this passive objectivity Has me question Every word I say God knows what I'm meant to sound like And this morbid objectivity Has me question Everything I do God knows what I'm meant to be like... And though it comes off as tragedy I write only black comedy All these lack is a laugh track So let's sing Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha ha ha f*cking ha Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha (This 101 melody) Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha (Descending so predictably) Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha (This depicts a descent) (A crisping sear on yellow leaf) (This depicts a descent) Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha ha ha f*cking hah (This depicts a descent) (Of withering despondency) So let's sing Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha-hah ha Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha ha ha f*cking hah A Descent Because every time you meet someone new You repeat yourself Reiterate that mission statement But it's an edit Fractal and diffuse Designed by committee A caricature Designed for the worst people You are likely to have to Explain yourself to And this is the cycle For the rest of our days We will lie. We will lie And this is the cycle For the rest of my days Eternally subsidised me
