the malcontent hymn

too overdone, too underdone, why can't we make up our minds?

identified, declassified, it all hides.

but in the end how many times will our false pretense trip us down?

the trapped and trapping duel in a never-ending warfare clash.

elicit power from consent, or so the saying goes,

while money buys a government and a "leader" thumbs his nose.

no battle cry could make me stand.

this head will never bow again.
