Elusive Reflections
by Remains of the Day· from Hanging on Rebellion
Kneel, you are the whipping boy,
For you are chosen to succumb without truce in the eyes of fire
These things have remained the same for hundreds of years
Just like the vengeance of a million slaves
Hold up your many flags of insecurities
Just like they tell you how it must feel to live free
Open sail on a tar pit sea, searching for someone of abundance
Will please an opportunist well in eyes of disgust
Guilty for everything you get
You never thought this mirror would be so hard to tame
Count down your blessings and save them frugally
Just like your victim, only karma sets them free
Profusion lies in a banquet of idle rumors that is trapped in your head
How many minds were left unwashed since you taught them the way?
How many minds were left untaught since you washed them away?
