Feathers Wise - Let the Chaos Feed My Evolution

Cut the nightmares from my body
And burn them with the medical waste
Burn the hair from my skin
And cut eyebrows in my face

Take the toxins from my system
Put the pills beneath my tongue
The doctors keep my money
But the hormones keep me young

The world may burn around me
The boundary may be crossed
Death may tap my shoulder
And all may seem lost

At midnight when the present
Approaches critical mass
Just one thing is certain
This too shall pass

Glamour is resistance
Mystery my guide
Beauty is my weapon when
There is no where to hide

Let the dream become real
And the real become dream
Let the chrysalis twist
And break at the seams

Let the chaos feed my evolution
Let the phoenix rise again
Let the chaos feed my evolution
Let the change come from within

Can't stop the world from changing
Old legacies destroyed
Obsolete and screaming
On their way into the void

They call my life a protest
An existential threat
To traditions being vanquished
By the peerless Internet

But I see no shining future
Just the now to trust
Can't trust in fucking Facebook
Not Google, or Elon Musk

Not Wal-Mart, not Chevron
Coke, or the NFL
Not Trump or the fucking government
Or any other demon in this hell

Rearrange the deck chairs
And play the violins
Race off to the lifeboats
And eat the one who wins

The rats have fled the shipwreck
And sharks arrive at dawn
Capital is everything
And everything is wrong

Let the dream become real
And the real become dream
Let the empire twist
And break at the seams

Let the chaos feed my evolution
Let the phoenix rise again
Let the chaos feed my evolution
Let the change come from within

Navigate the sea of information
At your fingertips, on command
Illuminate the world with your creations
Let the children understand
