Unhinged


So you’re feeling like a lab rat,
cagey edicts don’t experimentally sit well with you
Those white coat government cats
be cheesing you off with the moldy logic they spew

Lockdowns are the latest liberty mousetrap — 
Regulatory rules 
has you shuffling priorities in a 
decision-making maze

Masking your fears makes you jargon adept
Bureaucratic tools
got guinea pigs in info-read disarray
Bombarded by EM waves

Keep Pied piping that pandemic noise
24-7,
sunup to sundown

Audio dosage got you losing your poise
Nine eleven
is the replicated alarm

Nervous ticks
be giving you untimely, irregular palpitations
Keyboard clicks
spamming your eyes with scientific divinations

Herd impunity has you so unhinged!
Injectable salvation
is being force fed in a plastic syringe

Petri dish piety,
it has plenty of quarantine side-effects
Vial hesitancy
will hazard the odds to cadaver dissect
