Battle Lines:
Is the pen still mightier than the sword
when in an internet age the gun is inferior to the laptop
...the pen is still mightier than the sword in an internet age
eyes wide open hearts still working
they come under fire
from guns and tongues trying to push their ugly desires
told not to believe in everything that you're told
take it all with a pinch of, a bucket of salt
battle lines drawn, those with and those without wealth
express? suppress? what will you do with yourself?
express? suppress? what will you do with yourself?
their motives, to inform or make a profit
one sided histories when bombs are dropping
this long list of feats and means of subjugation
countered by a valiant flow of information
when iron fists don their velvet disguise
seditious soapboxes spring into life
regulate dissent, legal means have no effect
fail to admit that they pose no threat
and treat them with the utmost respect
regulate dissent, legal means have no effect
fail to admit that they pose no threat
another futile attempt

No Fixed Address:
avoid eye contact keep walking
avoid eye contact just keep walking
told me he always gets his food out of the bins and skips
but he always clears up if he makes a mess
shops started staining their old food with a blue dye
i struggle and fail to understand why
No Fixed address so no job prospect
no wage so of course you've got no rent
if i were in the same position I'd be pretty depressed
so i can understand how his money is spent
avoid eye contact keep walking
avoid eye contact just keep walking
next time i see him i apologise because
i've forgotten his name
he says that's okay because he's done the same
but i cant take my eyes off of a big red graze
some cunts had fun kicking him in the face
