Rob Schackne #1007 - "Listen to the news"

          Listen to the news
          everything's gone to hell
          upbeat and sincerely

          passionate principle
          a fruit bowl you can't eat
          (the buckets are out back)

          I am no different
          I had sympathy for the devil
          I waited for solutions

          now it looks too late
          a midnight espresso
          watching this old heart

          I'm lying in the dark
          a funny story I remember            
          just might get some sleep tonight
