Erase the Human Race

Erase The Human Race With one empty space I can erase the human race From the daze of the gray haze When the days create the case For an ironic song of wrongly structured Verbs where every line is on the curb With one solitary tap of the keyboard I can record morbid and sordid chords Abhorred by the hordes of lords Who were painted so high on the fly Like false dimes in time to rhyme On the memory of a fallen poet And we could surely blow it We all know it With one line we define our humanity On the pages of insanity Locked in the basement of vanity Our fingers feverishly fingering A fake falsetto Over orange skies Like flies we flock to the newest thing Which brings us to sing of rings and bling While we fling the wings of the king The keys are falling all around Found and bound and bounced And flaunted by the haunted and daunted Who thought they could do the right thing When the fight tonight on this moonlight sonata Could bring the end to our technological structure It's with one empty space That I can erase the human race
