We Are Throwing Stones Today
we are throwing stones today
we are impervious to the blood we painted the floor with
our anger combined is like an emotional avalanche on a killing spree
it is brand spanking midnight, and we are far from done
we have been hiding behind our smiles and greetings for much too long
we have been making false progress reports with every stroke of our expressions
we have been makeshift clowns on an untrustworthy pedestal
now all the weight of life and reality has all come down on us
the only thing left in our arsenals is lashing out
we choose to yell, blame, scream, throw, punch, curse, and shout
the next chapter despite the snapping sounds is so unclear
the devil has taken over for sure because there is no way that God is here
we lost faith somewhere between year five and the first ten lies
we lost hope somewhere between year ten and all ten versions of each disguise
everything is tainted but we eat it all up anyway
everything is tainted but we soak ourselves in it everyday
the love is still there but we know that we just may have to leave
sometimes the best medicine in life is the prescription we do not want it to be
