Leaky Umbrellas

Everything is going to shit
and the both of us are holding on to leaky umbrellas
trying to weather the storm
it's the norm!
what they're trying to sell us as normal is
really a bag full of rats

falling flat
side to side, up and down and in loops
jumping through hoops
just to keep all the bricks overhead!
don't be afraid!
cuz the worst you might get
is a little bit wet
next time daddy unbuckles his jeans
stock up on beans!
it might buy you a week (or a couple of days)- when:

everything is going to shit
and you gotta hold on to your leaky umbrella
see if you weather this storm!
try to keep warm
and don't buy what they sell you as normal
everything dies in the end.

friends are there for when you get sick
when things go down- they go down quick
"let me get out of this garbage hellhole-
maybe my life can begin!"
leave a bag by the door and then never stop asking:
"when?"
"sooner than you think"

when-
everthing is going to shit
and all of us are holding on to leaky umbrellas
trying to weather the storm!
don't conform!
pick your shit and go offer a shoulder
reach out and lean on a friend.

don't let it end!

everything is already shit
so don't you let go of your leaky umbrella
that's how you weather a storm!
build a home
and decide for yourself what is normal!
find for yourself what is real!
(it's a thrill)
