sunday robbery - inquietude ep
by n.m. bell

standing masked on the floor
broken glass, all alone
untold treasure filling palms and pockets both

carpet stains in the hall
fingerprints litter the walls
a knife's handle rests against a future oath

banging on the door sends a message
human greed that's simply wanting more
once inside, it pillages and it plunders all
where now, peacefully, it rests against the core

tires squeal, fear awakes
heat enveloping the brakes
men and minds go racing all the same

holding back human strength
furniture hinges ache
the door crashes in, the reason that they came

banging on the door sends a message
human greed that's simply wanting more
once inside, it pillages and it plunders all
where now, peacefully, it rests against the core

bodies break, beating halts
once awake, sleep recalls
justice served, and yet no smiles show

plastic bags cover all
photos taken, writing scrawled
phone calls made and safely home they go

banging on the door sends a message
human greed that's simply wanting more
once inside, it pillages and it plunders all
where now, peacefully, it rests against the core
