Bad Faith

just off the cuff
doing voodoo stuff.
man with a damn good religion,
can’t fault.
real hide,
really binding the wolf
can’t keep a straw wall
from shaking
from the time I was brought into this world
I couldn’t get enough
ravenously talented,
but someone else’s dog
and they’re keeping me starved for good
home security, tax evasion
all the good baby names are taken
so why not scrape some icing off the cake?
worst are lit fantastic angles, songs of praise from plastic angels,
rest are left aloft to keep what’s lost in bad faith.
good thoughts
good flaws
but bad faith
if you came into this wrong
no way to give that gift away
no plot to stop
your ill fate
if you’ve sinned against god
it’s bad faith!
did you pray,
did you pause
not get involved?
when you see something wrong
it’s good
you committed it all but too late
did we render it all in bad faith?
Just bad faith.
Maybe I just need a real deep stretch, yah
this brilliance adorns human vanity
they’ll get it after I’m dead
how could their hearts be as empty
as the hotels I’ve trashed
How do they choose to act
good thoughts
good flaws
but bad faith
it was all in your palms
no way to give that gift away
your plans were off
but too vague
so you abandoned it all
in bad faith!
did you pray,
did you pause
not get involved?
when you see something wrong
it’s good
you admitted it all
but too late
did we render it all in bad faith?
Just bad faith
if you didn’t get caught it’s good
yah they’re keeping me chained for good
did you listen at all?

Topographic Relief Vol 6
by Various Artists
Warped, woozy vaporwave that builds suspense and unease with long, gauzy sheets of sound. Psychedelic and hypnotic.
