No Rocks on the Scotch

Enough to destroy and exterminate much that we share
Burning and chopping down what gives you breathable air
Disinformation is out there to make you forget

Silence
Shut your eyes
Turn around
Run away

And never come back again

Blame the right
Tossing hate to the right
A distraction
Blame the left
Tossing hate to the left
A distraction

The hate

Our lungs’ on fire, many homes torn down
It’s hard to breathe

Next war: stand in line
Past war: never mind
Scars will multiply
May last for a long time

Melting further away from the aurora view
Dumping pollution that outlives the life in the blue
Polarization created to make you forget

Silence
Shut your eyes
Turn around
Run away

And never come back again

Blame the right
Tossing hate to the right
A distraction
Blame the left
Tossing hate to the left
A distraction

The hate

No rocks on the scotch, plastic waves
It’s hard to breathe

Next war: stand in line
Past war: never mind
Scars will multiply
May last for a long time

Divided by hatred
Occupy all your attention
Feed with hate as bait
Occupy all your attention
