Invisible Man

from Exhumed Songs EP by Haldol

/

about

This song is simultaneously about "green capitalism" and the failures of the Communist Party USA. Green capitalism fails in relying on localism and lifestyles, while still buying into the problem. The Communist Party became a party encroached upon by bourgeois, rich liberals perching on ivory towers.

lyrics

Words equipped for empowerment by bourgeois bedfellows
Lose ears― the city shuts their doors and windows;
Decadence shields eyes from those that they watch over,
An eagle's prey in a field without cover.
Dining with mad men: drunk with their tales,
They forgot their names as they sipped on wild ales.
The world that they see is now void―
Within the armchair, reality's easy to avoid.

Life's an illusion to those who do not live,
Absconding from human pressure;
As the bourgeois bohemians hide behind lifestyles,
Oppression and exploitation still endure.
