justice is now

Burn the papers. Break the chair. Nobody’s listening. Nobody cares. Yeah, justice is a slaughterhouse, grease on the floor, With a lock on the inside and a boot on the door. They bill you for breathing, they bill you for dying You can read all the rules from a leather-bound page, While they lock up the door and they tighten the cage. There’s a judge in the back room doing lines off a file, You can cite the amendments, you can wave your brief, A bullet that "vanished," a report that was lost, And the blind lady holds up a thumb on the scale, While the highest bidder gets the key to the jail. It’s a rigged little carnival, death on a string, Where the fat cats dance and the hangmen sing. You can look for a hero, you can wait for the dawn, By the time they arrive, everything that you loved is gone. Billing you hourly for turning off the light. A permit to breathe, a license to weep, A percentage taken from the dirt where you sleep. The ink is still wet on the eviction decree, Signed by a ghost who claims he's setting us free No angels are weeping, no heavens gonna part, There's no golden lining to the rot in the heart. It’s just concrete and iron, it’s just razor and wire, Feeding the furnace and stoking the fire. Look at the cages they built wide and large And the blind lady holds up a thumb on the scale, While the highest bidder gets the key to the jail. It’s a rigged little carnival, death on a string, Where the fat cats dance and the hangmen sing. You can look for a hero, you can wait for the dawn, By the time they arrive, everything that you loved is gone Burn the papers. Break the chair. Nobody’s listening. Nobody cares.
