Shunned - Momus

To live apart from everyone

It isn’t hard when it must be done

I have the rain, I have the sea

I am a danger to society

If I am shunned, then I am shunned

And I have lost, and you have won

You have your system, it’s not my job

To interfere, demand you stop

And if it works, it works for you

There’s nowhere else for us to go

But I am shunned, you turn from me

And I’m imprisoned, but you’re not free

And all the things I tried to change

The bullying, the calling of names

Corruption, subjugation to your military

Humiliation systematically

And I am stunned, that I am shunned

That I am lost, and they have won

I’ll read a book, I’ll watch the wall

Breathing exhaust

While exhausted sparrows fall

And when the bees have disappeared completely

What did for them will do for me

And so I’m shunned, and so I die

And somebody asks why, but… no reply
