Emptiness Is a Mule
At the Drive-In Lyrics

Once upon a crime, with the radio on I was trampled underfoot
As I listened to the news on the radio, I felt crushed by the weight of the world's problems and injustices.

By the prince far guard broadcasting
The voice of the ruling class sends a message that dominates the airwaves and shapes public opinion.

To your living room two miles from bangledesh
Despite the physical distance between us, the media's reach extends into every corner of the world and infiltrates our homes.

I will walk your rope without that safety net this member is dismembered
I am taking risks and pushing boundaries, even if it means putting my own safety and well-being on the line.

But who still remembers that we're all pretenders
Despite our efforts to be authentic and genuine, we are all playing roles and wearing masks to some extent.

Watch your step because the mule is an empty
Be careful and cautious, because the situation is uncertain and unstable.

Because the mule is free
The situation is unpredictable and uncontrollable, with no clear direction or guidance.

Fifth time on the mission
I have attempted this task or goal multiple times before.

Her volcano erupted so respect equal's embarassment testasterone coward
She became upset and angry, and I felt ashamed for not standing up for what is right and just, instead succumbing to societal pressures and norms.

I' m ashamed to be a pig amongst the pork
I feel disgusted and frustrated at being associated with those who perpetuate and benefit from oppression and inequality.

That fights the war against the wounded
Rather than helping those who are struggling or disadvantaged, society often exacerbates their problems through systemic discrimination and violence.

And disabled the life I've encountered
The obstacles and challenges I have faced in life have prevented me from achieving my full potential and living a fulfilling existence.

Take the time dont you hold your breath
Don't rush through life or hold your breath in anticipation of the future - take time to appreciate the present moment.

Cuz as the years pass by we turn blue
As time goes on, we become numb and desensitized to the world around us, losing our passion, purpose, and curiosity.

You can't be absolute within the obsolete
You cannot hold onto outdated, narrow-minded beliefs and expect to remain relevant or effective in a rapidly changing world.

So don't whisper and murmur like a fool
Speak up and take action, rather than passively accepting the status quo or whispering behind closed doors.

Pick a card from the shuffling base
Make a choice and take a chance, even if the outcome is uncertain or risky.

But all your kings and queens are gone
The traditional power structures and societal hierarchies are crumbling, leaving a power vacuum that is waiting to be filled.

So how the hell do you expect to swim in all your filthy cesspool of psalms
How can you navigate and survive in a world that is polluted with greed, corruption, and immorality?

Motel coffin deposit, down and out on 6th st. a la japan
I am stuck in a cheap, run-down motel on 6th street, reminiscent of the similarly bleak surroundings of Japan.
