Around the World in a Daze

Juggling molecules like my name is God
While science explains only what is not
I see the world within my eyes
Within the lines of modern minds
Strip us of pure intension
Basic freedoms are now expensive
Bound us by the sound of war
Comprehension is but a bore
Question everything nevermore
De-humanize is the prize
Mysteries are left unsolved
If the price is right
We learn to crawl
And then to walk
Like a flower
That blooms and falls
We strive to grow in love
While the machine screams
To stay above
I wish us all good luck
As we fight our devils
Up and down transcending levels
My words are bullets of truth
The harder they come
The harder we lose
Getting into heaven
Is harder than watching the news
It’s easy to screw up
We all grew up
Shaking the beasts’ tail
Demonic ideas devised
To enterprise the system to fail
In cahoots with puppet politicians
To no avail
Do we live a lie?
Or do we die and try?
Because you can put it all together
But nothing lasts forever
