Acid Rainmaker

Arborb

We all understand

We truly know what madness

Has come to reprimand

Ah, but of course

Love thyself

As you command

The wand is waved

The pixie dust floats all around

And the dreams are remanded

Into the custody 

of a most peculiar Shaman

That means no offense

Very careful with their words

Lest the damage be complete

 

Dance that dance 

Chew that fool down 

Wash that body in chemical fire

Let the acid rains wash over us all

And burn it all down

Right down to the heart of it all

 

Please, 

Regale us with your revelations

This world is corrupt

And no one can add up

to the ethics of yore

Or perhaps

 just the moral compass of your

Own personal internal ferryman

The suffering of all truly matters

Except the one who worships 

The ground on which you walk

 

Dance that dance 

Chew that fool down 

Wash that body in chemical fire

Let the acid rains wash over us all

And burn it all down

Right down to the heart of it all

 

Because what is a heart for

If not for breaking

For taking

And sealing away in a cave

Full of yes men and echo chambers

Hiding away with the victims

And the blameless

Where accountability comes to die

 

So yes please Dance that dance

Chew the fool right the fuck down

Wash us all in toxic rains

Burn it all down

Right down till there’s no heart left at all
