Scaffolding

Another year of lost pace
In a new kind of stagnance
No lumens left to show, no light, no hope
To hold back the water
And those who possess means, to stem the tide
Deny their imprimatur

All of the scaffolding, superimposed
No wonder we are still ineffectual
All of the scaffolding, superimposed
And all of this is not sustainable

In contrary
In contrary

Explosions will fill the sky
They continue to deny
They chose not to see
Those devoid of free agency

In contrary, the world is a cold dark place
Humanity will wash itself away
In contrary, the world is a cold dark place
Humanity will wash itself away

Superimposed
No hope

No wonder we are still
Ineffectual

Superimposed
