how many bricks

a small tiny room
surveillance cameras
pointing fingers at me
 
check me out
strip me down
i took nothing you see
 
sign your name here
whats your name there
critical judgements of disbelief
 
shiny cold bracelets
a cold empty seat
why were you doing this to me
 
one phone call
250 for bail
gonna be an hour? here sit in this cell
 
one hour, two hours
387 bricks
one toilet, one window
 
two blankets, soft and warm
angry yelling
get the hell out of here
 
what did i do
where did i go wrong
i didnt do it i say
 
but inside scared
of a bigger meaning
about to take over in the end

(2011)
