Saddest Song

What's wrong with everyone?

There's a panic in their eyes

Like others getting close are aliens, in disguise

They smell conspiracy on the lips of dearest friends

Reminds me of a time long ago,

They think it's the end

Of what we all created, used to love but now we hate it

Life is as simple as the mind it lives in

The truth is a waste of time, when we're conditioned to understand

Lies are the right way as we watch the blind leading the blind

Everything that we see is another's suffering

Learn to enjoy the message your TV is delivering

You're safe behind the glass, like being at the zoo

The face of guilty thoughts turns around and looks just like you

Don't want to be another victim but you watch them suffer

Organized, desensitised and trained

To wake up at 6 AM, go to work come back and in bed by ten

When the feeling is safe and warm

Horrified by any change, living by consensus destroys us

Paints pretty pictures at the same time will do us more harm
