The Fire Brewed Formula For Fucking Failure

John Edward Smith Jr.

falling into a round
of hide and seek
I'm going down
I'm weak
I'm alone
I'm tired
I'm sick
I'm sinking
I'm burning
in the silence
I'm learning the gospel
of death to the meek
and in ego death I will rise
I'll find the key
to the door I put up
for the good of you
and the beauty in all things
has always made me cry
for the fact that it dies
but I know that to be a lie
don't I?

    Dark and nicely written

    Yes, the old myth the meek will inherit the earth.
    I read the small print, fooled again.
    Now the taxman, he really rules the earth.
