A Thank you to Authority
By physicalgraffiti
Its you.
You cause the outsiders,
the fuck-ups and the suicides.
your responsible for the eating disorders,
the mass murders and the hate crimes.
its you who taught those drug addicts,
those "sticky fingers" and those sex dealers.
you're the reason for those assorted physcos,
masochits, and sadists.
Your the one who blew out the light,
for those who follow the darkness.
Its you.
Its you with your authority,
your power
and your rules.
ITs the democracy,
the dictatorship,
the communists,
and the monarchs.
We have the power to rule,
and yet we rule over power.
Its you.
Its you who put those cuts,
on that little drama queens arm.
Its you who made him light one up.
Its your who made her drink.
Its you who made them forget about love.
And its you who made me think.
Its you.
Its you.
