this one's about government corruption, and skeletons in the closet.
ghosts in the alcove
hanging on their hooks
with no intentions
of balancing the books

out in the hallway
where the shadows loom
hidden agendas
coming into view

free speech?
talk is cheap
sacrifice?
take me

plans for a merger
whispers on the news
the streets are flooded
convicts on the loose

free speech?
talk is cheap
sacrificed?
take me
