Requiem For The Suicided

If you shine a light in places
where the shadows hide the faces
Of the puppet-masters pulling all the strings
With distortions and omissions
reinforcing your suspicions
You're engaging in some very foolish things

This is a requiem for the suicided
uninvited "shouldn't write it" journalistic types
They can feed you some exclusive
But you must be less intrusive
Like the other tippex-wielding gutter snipes

You know you cannot fight it
It's expertly expedited
But you want to see the face behind the mask
And you're always taking chances
when you're looking for the answers
To questions that you're not supposed to ask

This is a requiem
Someone suicided them

If you iron out the creases
and you find too many pieces
Of a puzzle you're not meant to figure out
It all gets pretty sloppy
Before you've even posted copy
Suicide…without a shadow of a doubt…
