pride no longer has definition
a state invoked for the lack of position
strength is the bait that keeps us so busy
all sense lost in the frenzy
they should never touch the ground
irony is the refuge of the educated
always complaining but they never quit
they should never touch the ground
that keeps us tied up in all these strings
we draw lines and stand behind them
that's why flags are such ugly things
that they should never touch the ground
