Even as a kid
goin to Chicago
I could see the forests
On the way
And similiar to this concept
Is the metropolis
Absent of the animals
Absent of the foliage
But theirs is a foliage
of steel

Read between the lines
while tangled in vines
after taking whats mine
You know,
I'm very appreciative
to let you live
And so
you cannot complain
in your bane
Anyone else
would let it rain

found in those chosen
Mending and bending
sleeping in again
You've found your mouth
but your brain is behind
and in a bind
but you're so blind
And a little too kind

I took it to mean

Soft cries from above the chasm
We're all short lived in the long run
Noone ever said it would last forever
We all had our hopes
And there was time
But damned if we knew it

Sinking in a couch
wrapping your thoughts on
wonders beyond your mind
hearing your gears begin to grind
before you know it you're split in half
cleaning your mind in a colorful bath

Technicalities
In our facilities
Happy to treat
Enjoyed to meet
With all similes
And forward geising
After your everyday despising
Ignorant indignitaries
The unambassadors
Telling us of

Forms of disproportion
Sent for extortion
Something is seriously wrong here
We cannot drive
And we're nowhere near
Our vanishing point

Forms of perspective
Missin' the objective

Through falsity
and no belief
under circumstance
victims of result
Where the demons dance
On top of broken salt
There stands one left
Through elasticity
And ever present theft

In a land far away
Across the sun and out of day
There are a people who lost their way
There are a people who can never say
Freedom

And should we choose
To ignore their rights

Reality is no dream
or so it would seam
We're falling behind
in the sands of time
those of us
who've seen the light
have seen our troubles
and no longer fight
but the dog which bites
