The Devil Within 2 Leaders

Are we on the national brink Forcing our view of rhetoric without having the option to rationalize or think The other side,for better or worse,can only succumb to their own paranoia and delirium The darkest smile and an evil grin is easy to point out in the sky tantalizing each side with a promise of seductive rewards if one would only PUSH THAT BUTTON The people(meaning WE)are sitting on the bleachers and rafters Yelling..GO TEAM GO..HIT THE BASTARDS WE ALL KNOW! Pomp Romp Circumstance a cheap coy response to a Betrayed Lover of a doomed romance Power plants Korean Stance Nuclear cloud Tore down that fence 2 leaders helpless Nation Armegeddon disintegration I know the meaning behind the words:FOR BETTER OR WORSE,RICHER OR POORER,IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH...TIL DEATH DO US PART A chill and a shivering breeze behind my collar 3,2,1,0..chaotic situation where my ear can hear our scream,the holler Meanwhile,in the White house..one Leader says to himself:CHECKMATE Yet,on the other side of the continent..a little but grinning man response with his NOT SO FAST retaliatory reply Both Leaders will not sleep easy tonight Especially in a cold dark cave without Cilvilization to light it
