Time As Imperialism lyrics

Artist: Buried Inside
Album: Chronoclast

Lyrics

The calendar year is an imperial narrative. the seven-day week is an imperial infliction. circannual holidays are imperial flag-posts. mechanical time is an imperial installation. the merchant workday is an imperial offering. greenwich meantime is an imperial sanction. the looming weight, uniformly imposed; as albatross and as anchor. the new time-imperialists will get their way with those left: the rural, the feral, the frail. feed them a thread, that leads to a string. they'll follow the string, until it leads to a rope, and from that rope every vestige of what was will be hung by the neck
