while here men, beasts, wagons...

Stomach very...

Can’t you see I’m working hard, Lord?
According to Your will, according to Your accord
I feel like I’m worthless
When I’m unable to clean up my mess

streets,

Run pass
the house
that's 
no longer
your home -

Our lives and our time
Fired useless
Into the air
Toy cap gun shots
Those winter palaces unstormed
No tax offices ransacked
Where is utopia I asked
And no-one knew

And shouting expletives upon expletives.
