Songtexte

Sound the alarm, get an ambulance, ready a statement
For reactive critics, for the OCI, for the rest of the back end
In these museums to living history, lined with the artifacts of threat
Risk management is a precondition for every colour of self-defeat
Mandate piled on mandate, verdicts stacked high
Dust-covered and time-worn
Signed by solicitors general and bound by library services
A mounting legacy of heroic solutions
And failed actions that can't be normalized and interpreted away
Used to placate all the lives shamed and denied
Custom is the greatest of weavers
Devoid of useful memory and locked in fixed movements
No small madness confusing symptoms with cause
A convenience of definition
Condemnation narrowed to a point
Better to drill it in, benign as a bullet
Meanings are inseparable from purposes
