What a strange world I live in This is our world But so many people live as if it is only their world Blue orb speckled with green Spinning around a gargantuan ball of fire at the center of everything This strangeness is felt Like tears on my cheeks In a world with so many sharp edges I'm searching for a soft place to land Society is a socially acceptable form of prison We're so accustomed to the prison's parameters That we're blind to them We work like little faithful working bees So our kings and queens Can reap the benefits If we stay nescient Then we will never have the option to break free But some don't care to be free They find security in the dull drum of certainty So, I invite you to step away from this madness with me, But only if you truly want to be free.

What A Strange World
What a strange world I live in This is our world But so many people live as if it is only their world Blue orb speckled with green Spinning around a gargantuan ball of fire at the center of everything This strangeness is felt Like tears on my cheeks In a world with so many sharp edges I'm searching for a soft place to land Society is a socially acceptable form of prison We're so accustomed to the prison's parameters That we're blind to them We work like little faithful working bees So our kings and queens Can reap the benefits If we stay nescient Then we will never have the option to break free But some don't care to be free They find security in the dull drum of certainty So, I invite you to step away from this madness with me, But only if you truly want to be free.
