Fabricstate - Hannah Peel

Is everything real?

Pain and love, I can’t conceal

I’ll tear it all down

Not afraid to start again

Leave this painted room, and burn the paper moon

Step into the street

Applause for the scenery

Is this fake?

Tape back all your hurt

With bare and shallow words

Fabricate this fabricstate

Clean and uniformed

Our every need supplied

What would it be like… to die in a lifeless place?

Flat packed, boxed in

Devoid of any fires

Step into the street

Applause for the scenery

Is this fake?

Tape back all your hurt

With bare and shallow words

Fabricate this fabricstate

Stripped to the bare bone

Today I walked and looked around

At all the crowded streets

A thousand pounding feet

Am I just one of these?

Another one on your list?

Falsehood is not in words

Falsehood it is in things

Step into the street

Applause for the scenery

Is this fake?

Tape back all your hurt

With bare and shallow words

Fabricate this fabricstate…
