a carnival of counterfeits has no room for something real
you'll think there's a place where you made it
you searched for this your whole life
new answers will satisfy but then you realize it's never enough
that's the slickest marketing i've ever seen - a spiraling trap
with enough ambition and a firm set of rules you can have anything you want
you can walk right out into the world and capture and kill god
in a little box or a little book to be understood
but no one can argue with the good sense and strength of a solid foundation
or with the weakness born when corruption is the rule and not the exception
i'm trying hard to forget everything i thought i knew
