it really doesn’t matter

Listen, hey, it really doesn’t matter and it really never did
In the war the humans come and go
But where the fuck is Michelangelo?
Listen, hey, it never mattered how you were, how we are
Power killed half and greed killed the rest
Snakes never wore jewels
Except in fairytales
You speak of love and there are places
Where it never rains and it never will
And there are dots we have never joined and we never will
And it really doesn’t matter where the music goes once it stops playing in the sky
And it really doesn't matter who killed the gods and who plundered Rome
And it really doesn’t matter who sold the chimera and who bought the lies
And it really doesn’t matter who smashed the kaleidoscope against the shores
And it really doesn’t matter if we wrest away all that was taken
And it really doesn’t matter if we seek payback for all the lost sunbeams
And moonbeams
And stardust
And mountains
And rivers
And everything else
There’s a bit of love still left and that’s about it.
