Lotus Gait - Propagandhi[00:00:00]

I have this recurring nightmare[00:00:04]

Flailing pigeon her broken feet[00:00:09]

Frozen solid to the freezing pavement[00:00:14]

I turn away as if I do not see[00:00:20]

I have this childhood memory[00:00:26]

Of my old man screaming[00:00:30]

From the drivers seat[00:00:32]

To turn away from an unfolding horror[00:00:36]

But he could not undo what I had seen[00:00:41]

We never spoke of it again [00:00:46]

Two more hapless citizens of[00:00:49]

The new post-traumatic[00:00:55]

Stress worldwide disorder[00:00:56]

A stockholm syndrome fifth estate[00:01:01]

Desperate to batten[00:01:05]

Down the mounting horrors[00:01:06]

And shuffle on in a global lotus gait[00:01:10]

Content to marinate[00:01:14]

In the plasma glow of the[00:01:17]

Home entertainment prisons we[00:01:22]

Commune before like dime-store shrines[00:01:25]

Are these but votive lives[00:01:30]

A strangled twisted truss[00:01:34]

That shores-up each of us[00:01:37]

Anything to dull the pain[00:01:41]

Of a splintered lotus gait[00:01:44]

As for me a filigree of psychic police tape[00:01:49]

Tends to cordon-off the darker scenes[00:01:55]

But the wandering mind stumbles through it[00:02:00]

And relives them all eventually[00:02:05]

Pries open wide your eyes[00:02:09]

And shines a painful light[00:02:12]

On the guilt the fear the shame[00:02:15]

The courage never came[00:02:20]

From the plasma glow of the[00:02:24]

Home entertainment prisons we[00:02:28]

Cling to like dime-store shrines[00:02:32]

Are these but votive lives[00:02:37]

Conservative at heart[00:02:41]

A conformist from the start[00:02:45]

A stockholm syndrome fifth estate[00:02:49]

A staggering lotus gait[00:02:53]

It's a strangled twisted truss[00:02:57]

That shores-up each of us[00:03:01]

So anything to dull the pain[00:03:04]

Of a self-inflicted crippling lotus gait[00:03:07]
