victimology

those who believe us caught within a trap
are not the only ones who laugh and cry
then tell us to be true to the last lie
while giving us neither a staff or map
your choice is just to avoid the last gap
pick up your feet and roll the final die
let other things delight your waking eye
and other folk can clean up this old crap
this is the fault of those who have not heard
the gospel of the ones who preach out loud
that we are better off upon our knees
just keep our heads down ignore the absurd
and follow the impulses of the crowd
better to do those things that just appease
