Meltdown - King Crimson

Now he lies buried in metaphors

And allegory won’t let him breathe

Distorting the truth

Suffocates language in spin

We’re drowning in double speak, the lexicon

Reason washed up, out of reach

Devised and contrived

Injected under his skin

Meltdown

Words in meltdown

Down

Meltdown

Words in meltdown

Down

Down

When in doubt

Better say nothing

Don’t speak without

A place to begin

When in doubt

Don’t just say something

Those platitudes

Start to wear thin

Meltdown

Down

Watch it coming down

Bear without a sound

See their kingdom drown

Under the waves

Watch it coming down

Bear without a sound

See their kingdom drown

Under the waves

Watch it coming down

Bear without a sound

See their kingdom drown

Under the waves
