ALL GOOD THINGS

I found you stranded in a subplot and tangentially aware

Of a hundred wild centuries waiting

And it echoed

Through my brain as the days got shorter

And I still felt the sting

Of powerlessness

Dancing back and forth on contested airwaves

To decipher all the shit that you're feeding to me

Why'd you try to reason with those who couldn't dream

Of loving anything enough to give it away?

All good things

Will come in time, they're coming

All good things

Will come in time

So engrossed in every headline

While they're burying the lede

Scrolling for a sliver of real-life joy

To permeate the violence in my feed

Because I've never seen a people be so proud of their anger

Searching out the sources to explain it away

Confirmation bias as a way of living

All this mental math just to get through the day

All good things

Will come in time, they're coming

All good things

Will come in time

You say it

You said it

You meant it

You gave it away

All good things

Will come in time, they're coming

All good things

Will come in time, they're coming

Why'd you try to reason with those who couldn't dream it?
