A Tribute and Letter to Mother Russia

To all of those who fell from glory and fell short of the intended ideology behind Communism: May you rise to power once again.

If not for us here in the United States, you would possibly still be the U.S.S.R, or C.C.C.P as you knew it. I will take it upon myself to apologize for the self-absorbed actions of my "country". If not for the 'arms' race led by George Bush Sr., your economy may not have collapsed. And you know he did that intentionally right? He knew that Mikhail Gorbechev would continue to build weapons in order to keep up with the Good Ol' USA. Because after all, there was a so-called (Cold) War going on! But unfortunately you guys didn't have the money to keep building the weapons as we did. Hence, one of the reasons that you were in those long lines waiting for toilet paper.

You can in part blame the USA for this. I believe the reason behind it was that they didn't want Communism to spread. You see, to the Capitalists, Communism is a very Taboo subject and generally portrays an evil negative vibe. However, you can also blame Gorbechev, because he didn't have to keep building weapons in order to keep up with us. And I know I know, there were other factors involved in your eventual collapse. But I believe this to be one of the main reasons. So yea...I guess the USA won the Cold War huh? And to add injury to insult theres a fucking McDonalds right in the heart of Moscow. Those Fucking Capitalist......

JOY

"AGAINST ME - JOY"

All is quiet, except for this song
So maybe while I'm not together I can feel like I'm not alone
Somewhere off in the distance, rapidly advancing is an onslaught of sorts
Young sirens wail in a skewed sense of glory and the lions in their
cages roar in the memory of flight

there is a joy, a joy in all I can see. there is a joy, in every possibility.

All around us is a great great failing. American rockets red glare in a most
disgusting triumph.
In passing I am asked, "Do you believe in a God?"
I shrug off the answer and continue to get high
In this terror of no explanation, I am looking for a faith
My panic is an only reason...

there is a joy, a joy in all I can see. there is a joy, in every possibility
