You’re so high that you don’t have to confess
to all of the things
that you’ve done
When your term is over, don’t bother with goodbyes,
we’ll say them for you
when you’re gone
And everyone will wait for your time
while you’re searching for something
that’s not even there
Nothing you do can cover your lies,
the things that a high criminal
can decriminalize
Like the elders of Rome, like Nero in Robes,
wearing the clothes that you wear
You’ll need more than that to see you through
more than St. Peter, or Gabriel,
more than the pope could ever do,
while you're searching for something
that's not even there
You’ll serve no sentence for all of your crimes,
you won’t take the blame for
anything
Are you happy, yes are you glad
now that you’re finally king?
And this whole country
will turn to a mess
while you're searching for something
that's not even there
The president laughs,
the senators cry,
the senators retort,
the president laughs
The president has the floor,
the president starts the war
Where have you been?
are you hiding like him?
are you having a drink to yourself?
Do you have a better story to tell
with all the books that you've lined on your shelves?

In your eyes,
in your heart,
in your breath,
I can feel my body burn
Holding your hand,
the guns don't bother
us at all
The sparks made
our bodies
turn to flame
You're gone,
taken down by the soldiers
of the Tet

The salt
she breathed the air
stung her lips when she was there
As we road
against the sea
the waters washed our feet
The women
beat the drum
singing, "where are you from?"
Singing, "where are you from?"
we'll be singing, "where are you from?"
She trudged the sopped-up sands
black blood ran through her hands
The fisherman heaved their catch
as she felt and struck her match
In mourning, the kites fly
As their ashes filled the sky
As their ashes crossed the sky
As their ashes crossed the sky
The sky began to storm
as all beings flow in their forms
One thousand dying suns caused
the night to erupt and pause
Caused the night
to erupt and pause
The salt
he breathed the air
stung his lips
when he was there
Let them sing it
nine times nine
that now
the world is mine
And now
the world is mine.
