King Midas

Touch,

Grab,

Tap,

And pat,

No matter what you do, 

What was this is now that,


The loss of a kingdom,

The earning of a curse,

A curse or a blessing,

Just kill the people first,


This wasn't your intention,

Or perhaps it really was,

We all just know it happened,

Maybe our memories are just all fuzz,


I sense an evil among us,

It could be you,

Could be me,

I finally realize,

This isn't true,

Nor free,


All our friends are here,

Sharing thoughts,

What's on your mind?

We all know each other,

Our fear,

Our knots,

None of us are really one of a kind,


We have no control,

Of our actions,

Only our words,

We never listen,

To the factions,

To the birds,


We live in power,

Because not having power,

Isn't living,

We want power over the power,

The power of the people,

But it looks like that power,

Will overpower me.
