about

A song I wrote about being sick of people arguing about the election, even after it was over.

lyrics

A fork splits the path ahead
The crown must fall on someone's head
But on both sides are hands stained red
And so the future is our dread

So it starts and sides are taken
Monsters inside start to awaken
Hatred spreads, foundations shaken
Faith in human kind is breaking

Choose your disease
By the hands of either beast
We sicken
Choose your disease
It's just that simple;
The plot won't thicken.

The tensions rise
To end it all
Before my eyes
The curtain falls

The choice is made
Yet the battle still rages
I want it to fade
But fools keep playing sages

You, stop acting
Like you won

Your skin is burned and blistered
By an empty sun

It gives us no light
Rewards not your praise

And to the others

Stop this flow of foolish
False hindsight

Lying to yourself, pretending
Like it might

Be any better if we chose
To waste away by some other means


Choose Your Disease
By the hands of either beast
We all will bleed
Choose Your Disease
Odysseus, you made your choice
So fare the sea
