lirik lagu lotus gait – propagandhi
i have this recurring nightmare:
flailing pigeon, her broken feet
frozen solid to the freezing pavement.
i turn away as if i do not see.
i have this childhood memory
of my old man screaming from the driver’s seat
to turn away from an unfolding horror,
but he could not undo what i had seen.
we never spoke of it again.
two more hapless citizens of
the new post-traumatic stress worldwide disorder.
a stockholm syndrome fifth estate,
desperate to batten down the mounting horrors
and shuffle on in a global lotus gait.
content to marinate
in the plasma glow of the
home entertainment prisons we
commune before like dime-store shrines.
are these but votive lives?
a strangled, twisted truss
that sh-r-s-up each of us.
anything to dull the pain
of a splintered lotus gait.
as for me a filigree of psychic police tape
tends to cordon-off the darker scenes.
but the wandering mind stumbles through it
and relives them all eventually.
pries open wide your eyes
and shines a painful light
on the guilt, the fear, the shame.
the courage never came
from the plasma glow of the
home entertainment prisons we
cling to like dime-store shrines.
are these but votive lives?
conservative at heart.
a conformist from the start.
a stockholm syndrome fifth estate.
a staggering lotus gait.
it’s a strangled, twisted truss
that sh-r-s-up each of us.
so anything to dull the pain
of a self-inflicted, crippling lotus gait.
