Strange Denial

Strange Denial
A mutinous enemy carved a nascent country
Sweat, blood, and valor
Forms the grit of our history
Bequeathed to everyone:
Chance and free expression
Substance was restrained
And the spirit was broken
I feel a strange denial
Rhythmic as a change
Constance as time
Lonely

Insistent whispers
Somber as a wave bye bye
Searching for solution, without constitution
Black coats by our sides
Promising salvation
Advocating dogma as tickets to hereafter
Mortals in their prime
With their desperate hands in the air
Daunting
Complex and burning
Rythmic as change
Constant as time
Conflicts
Craving approval
Weighted as a murder trial
Oh I feel a strange denial
Correct is Consensus
Everything else, nonsense
Forward is the hope
Forget recompense
Peace and tranquility is only for the wealthy
Dearth for the masses
And inequality
I feel a strange denial
Rhythmic as change
Constant as time
Lonely
Insistent whispers
Dissipating in the night
Like a lone forgotten light
And no one is helping me
It's a strange denial
