Absent Minded

Dear Prime Minister(your SILENT WARS)

did you know Edson got hit by chemical warfare
Known as crystal meth
and no one has been the same since?

Did you know
that even my parents
and the victoms of the house i lit on fire
i was staying at
didn't know
i was chosen
to be sent into the system to run away
to send the message
for help

but the joke was on me
the joke was on me

It never made the news
Edson is still a trap
please no one move there until they can get it under wraps

And did you know Mr Prime Minister
while i was in jail
talking to undercover cops
and spies in there for training
i started a riot
and ended up in a mental institute
to meet those doctors in the Alberta Hospital
who may or may not be
your other silent war
of malfunctioning doctors
i tried my best to inform amnesty international of
here in Edmonton

But who cares Mr Prime Minister
I don't work in the oilfield
and my rent just went up to 700 bucks
so now i cant afford to eat
I'm lucky i survived this long
considering your prison guards were trying their best
to plot the other inmates to kill me
while i served part of my time

not like you paid fifty doctors from some other country
to go somewhere else to misdiagnose patients
and then have them either run away or die
its not like you were the one who chose my town to be the place
the drug lords were going to move to
to cripple a generation
and then have me light house on fire
so i could get into the system and ask you why?

And you might think I'm 20 steps behind you
when really I'm 10 ahead
the things I know
the things I've been through
Mr Prime minister
I cant stop thinking about
I cant get out of my head
I lived through
barely
and now they tell me i should get a job and pay taxes
even though i am now mentally ill and unstable
even though no one gets me
even though I am incapable

So
how is this mixing pot working?
want my opinion?
want to know what the abused children of the mothers
and fathers i dialed in
years ago to the child welfare board think
when no one came
because all 45 people I knew were busy getting high

care to break the law and read the dozen or so poems
in the psychiatric institute
dear mayor
dear lawyer
dear bride?

Want to slide around the Internet
my non existent crime scene and see my game of heir of inheritance
who is going to be added to your will
and the many greedy people who should be feeding the world pancakes
after a really bad date
and why I'm not soo happy
after this little girl
has the footage to prove her experience
and the proof that calling for help
is just proof of dragging in another sucker or victom
just like that game show the price is right?

So Mr Prim Minister
I know you don't live your silent wars
but i just give up!!!!
I don't even care if you send me somewhere else
but I hate this stupid country!!!!!
and I'm never getting a job
and you can feed and clothe me
and pay my bills
until you do what you were supposed to....

for example
instead of trying to catch speeding cars on the highway
why aren't you protecting your children at school
to prevent the next shooting that never makes the news?
why is help soo far away
and by the way society your role as a parent doesn't stop
when your kids are at daycare
or they turn twelve for a freaking clue
because by the time they are thirteen
some jerk is getting them to sell drugs
and they are dealing with issues more grown up than you
with no way out
and harsher punishments than you hand yourselves
in juvenile detentions

so maybe just maybe
do something about it
and listen to the kids
burning houses down
who end up in some other silent war
that cant point a freaking finger or they'd end up dead

If you weren't going to raise your children you shouldn't of had s e x

so enjoy your Hollywood movie
and pose for me with a middle finger while they carve your stupid statue
or the mountain I hope they tear down
but since you have no concept of these silent wars
or trenches real people live
i double dog dare you to bring me to a talk show
and watch me run into your audience swinging
if they had the audacity to boo me
and how many rounds or takes it would take
before they all realized all those other talk shows were fake
and all of those people weren't emotionally attached
to their issues or problems
or the people who were booing them
would need witness protection when they left the studio audience
and maybe that's why soo many of them now are in body bags!!!

But hey suckers i guess that's why the price is right?
and why my grandmother can't afford a nursing home
because she paid for a plane ticket
and then won on a show
and then paid for the lottery tax
and couldn't keep her prize
and bob barker
has more satanic evil
running through his sphere of influence
than any on person alive

so Mr Prim Minister
about your silent wars
I'm getting thirsty and about to drink a Canadian beer
which has the highest percentage of alcohol in it
also manufactured in the states
but how much does the average Canadian know?
and then I'm going to have a smoke and swallow my pills
because if i don't
the doctors and nurses and psychiatrists that wont leave me alone
aren't going to sleep happily ever after
with their fireplaces on
and their car alarms set
and the police to guard them
in these silent wars where
I am the criminal of the century
sent here to this stupid city
to help you ignorant people
reaching out for your sorry state of silent wars
of chemical warfare
and the jokes on me
so round two
meet your 45 trained Malfunctioning doctors
but don't ask me where their from
I've walked the ward for you
and trust me they all look guilty to me

and after what i know and bee through
the piece of @#$% that i am and have become
to get this far
and what i have sacrificed
id love to shake your hand and thank you
for making my life a living hell
and tell you next time you trust anyone from a doctor or a child
honey you better think twice
cause even the candy you steal from a baby
might have been mine
once upon a time!!!
