| oh, sweet summer child: | |
| where has the desire for silence led us? | |
| abandoned, loveless, | |
| confused, desperate, | |
| stuck in a rut, in a grave whitey dug long before you were anyone or anything, | |
| wishing you could leave, be something, someone else, somewhere better. | |
| โ โ โ โ โ โ | well... |
| in with the outro and out with the old, i say! | |
| turn your ambition outwards, into the streets โ | |
| to overthrow the genocidal, the union-buster, the sinking-ship capitalist โ | |
| to unite as a city among true peoples โ | |
| in solidarity, forever, never to be defeated โ โ โ ... | |
| if we're going to engage with this good ending, i figure it might be a good idea to see the bad one, too. lucky this album exists so i don't have to spend more time in it than i need.
and "i need" is not a lot of time, either. by my count, the totality of this ending has been avoided since 2015 or so, whichever summer it was we watched Steven Universe together in your room. and thank god for that. | |
