“Untitled”
By J. J. M. Nowell
(Intro by Mike Watt)
“If you’re lucky to have a choice,
if you’re lucky to have a say,
and if you’re strong enough to think clearly,
rise if you would.”
Lifting me up.
Since I was small.
Placing me
Upon this throne.
Forcing me.
Won’t let me grow.
Carrying me,
I don’t wanna go, no I don’t wanna go.
Rise if you would.
For that is our curse.
But know that I’m
Within this bind.
Just like you.
Cursing all
These forsaken souls.
Just like you.
This spot marks our grave.
You may rest here though.
Sit still and witness
The world fall so slow.
Ash begins to pile.
Like mountains of snow.
The fire fades yet still I don’t,
I don’t wanna go, no I don’t wanna go.
Rise if you would.
For that is our curse.
But know that I’m
Within this bind.
Just like you.
Cursing all
These forsaken souls.
Just like you.
Cursing all
These forsaken souls.
Just like you.
Within this bind,
Broken and blind.
Just like you.
I’d die instead
But I’m still undead.
Just like you.
Home is a throne
I won’t go,
Just like you.
