Nowhere's Ark:

I've bought every copy of the Big Issue for two months now,
but that doesn't make me socially conscious,
Just plain guilty of my class.

It's hard to not participate in the corporate machine,
When every venue is sponsored by phone companies.
Fuck your pride and apologize,
Say you're wrong and I'll listen.

From powerlessness to inadequacy,
So far what used to be impossible is now too hard,
'Could have been' is not a definite probability,
More like never, you didn't miss a thing.
And now I'm riding this ark to nowhere,
Skimming through a sea of bad metaphor,
Cynical religious reference,
It's just opinion, I would be offended if you didn't challenge it.

Classification, not some kind of Fonzy scale,
Fuck your head, melt your brain,
Deliver facts without emotion,
But that's news and this is propaganda.

Am I just scared by the unknown?
My deep-rooted opinion, I'm a tool,
Fuck my pride, I'll apologize,
Say I'm wrong and I hope you listen.

I'm a hypocrite, take a hit of this,
High horse bong, it tastes bitter in my mouth.
What can I say? My words taste worse than ash,
Opinions stoked up on years of prejudice,

Against the people that I see as wrong,
But assuming I'm not is my greatest fault,
A crack in the crust of my countenance,
A volcano of pure circumstance.
