perverting perfection (lyrics)

rub me the wrong way
and cause me more pain
lengthen a long day
and scatter my brain

from all of the hard stuff, i tend to abstain
cuz it’s hard to obtain….

25 dead men hanging from a tree
25 little people silent as can be
25 lifeforms fighting to be free

10000 deaf men ignorant of the beat
10000 blind men stumbling in the street
10000 ice cubes taking all the heat…

i’m the little guy who begs for change
without a home, i had no range
and when it rains i got all wet
i guess that’s what you get

who goes there
who leaves here
who’s staying in place
who needs you
who leads you
who’s taking up space…
