Tomorrow's arrival
Certain
But life
Who knows
We look forward to what comes
With the hopes of a better day
But then hope is lost
Will we ever see a leader?
In this tangled mess of a land
Once lead by by kings and queens
In times we never read about
That's not part of the syllabus
That which we call success
On our part
Replaced by some ballot system
That conforms to the world
Has nothing to offer to the people
But that word democratic
Makes me sleep better
Because we chose our suffering
Because words mean nothing
In-between those special years
It's nice to know someone cares
Once every half a decade
"No you didn't have to - groceries!
Let me go cast my vote"
But that's life
We look forward to what comes
With the hopes of a better day
Who knows when we will see
A leader.
