It's hard to believe
that you would think what they do
for the greater good

                                 Kelly McManus

I see their shadows
and the glimmer of their knives
but I will survive

                           Kelly McManus

Gone man gone
all those dreams you
clung to so tightly
gone all gone away
now there's nothing
left for you but
a slow agonizing death
of your own design
even though
you were warned
time and time
again to listen
now there's nothing
to hear
but you weeping
in fear of what
tomorrow brings
one last bird sings
so long

             Kelly McManus

Looked into the eyes
of creation saw the flaw
was imitation

                Kelly McManus

World full of people
all controlled by a remote
with no antidote

                 Kelly McManus

Dont know what to think
they only show you their way
not the world you dream

                           Kelly McManus

In front of the tube
theyve spent years programming you
to think like they do

                                         Kelly McManus

They wait out the storm
then business as usual
protest refusal

              Kelly McManus

Civilized beings
where on earth do you find them
not in this timeline

                                 Kelly McManus

All the children cry
their future's passing away
due to climate change

               Kelly McManus

One third is a dream
as you live your life between
the womb and the tomb

                       Kelly McManus

They say they serve you
but the opposites implied
at a price too high

                 Kelly McManus

Cut to the chasse
and put the world in its place
in a uniform
                        Kelly McManus

Capital idea
jumping off a cliff into
a cool blue ocean

                       Kelly McManus

Freedom a mirage
with control factors in place
ends the human race

                     Kelly McManus

Still in the stone age
living in our concrete caves
staring at pictures

                      Kelly McManus

All their negatives
when multiplied will become
a positive sum

                           Kelly McManus

Go on do your worst
to this place that we call Earth
from worth to worthless

                           Kelly McManus

Good technology
or bad looks like who's choosing
gonna make you sad

                             Kelly McManus

Learning to be kind
with those you find in your life
helps to ease your mind

                           Kelly McManus

It's so very sad
the world gave mad scientists
free run in the lab

                          Kelly McManus

The well has dried up
for those who chose to digress
now you'll be tested

                          Kelly McManus

Seeing where you've been
why do you continue on
such a rotten path

                   Kelly McManus

The only missiles
we really need are the
missals preachers read

              Kelly McManus

Nonsense today means
no sense in tomorrow so
laugh cry say goodbye

                 Kelly McManus

As the world serves
weapons manufacturers
six feet worth of dirt

               Kelly McManus

Are you entertained
as they tinker with your brain
legion is their name

                         Kelly McManus

Only  question is
what will stop the geniuses
from destroying us

                     Kelly McManus

Stand up and get crushed
unless you agree to be
totally brainwashed

                 Kelly McManus

Has the pandemic
advanced the production of
brain chips that you'll love

                     Kelly McManus

You can't change a world
that believes the wrong ways right
but doesn't hurt to try

                                  Kelly McManus

Crucify the good
to maintain the status quo
just letting you know

                    Kelly McManus

What will our fate be
industrialized nations
more toxicity

           Kelly McManus

Looked into the eyes
of an owl to see any
insights it could tell

         Kelly McManus

Problem with knowledge
is its abuse by small minds
who make big mistakes

                     Kelly McManus

Where are we going
looks like back to where we've been
once more round the rut

There is no wisdom
in a system that threatens
everybody's lives

                 Kelly McManus

So controversial
when someone says no to a
world out of control

                    Kelly McManus

Past and future is
in front of you and behind
present on your mind

                    Kelly McManus

In your fight for peace
how much money will you need
more that's why there's war

                             Kelly McManus

Where you gonna be
seeing your reflection in
their shoes you just shined

                     Kelly McManus

This world is a zoo
they're coming to see you and
your family too

                           Kelly McManus

Hiding in your hole
just shivering with your cheese
squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak

Kelly McManus

A sense of humor
is what every baby needs
to laugh till they cry

                Kelly McManus

Would you want mankind
living in your neighborhood
or out in the woods

                        Kelly McManus

Threatening us with
what they call our protection
cure that infection

                       Kelly McManus

Your changing nothing
with what they try to teach you
only spreading them

                              Kelly McManus

The system is rigged
in the benefit of pigs
to expand their sty

           Kelly McManus

Open your eyes see
countries and philosophies
are spider web strings

                        Kelly McManus

Let them take you now
beyond your comprehension
a nuclear pension

                       Kelly McManus
