I just don't know what it is you want to see
I'm becoming convinced its just about a fantasy
Writings of romance and of worlds that could never be
Discarding a healthy dose of reality

Yes yes, I know, this realm of the real is what we live and breathe
And yes of course it's all too easy to get up and leave
But I know in my heart that the system was sent to eternally deceive
And we all are affected in our own way by the grotesque we perceive

I too would love to frolic in the summer sun,
Through fields of dreams I would run
But my sights are fixed on what we have become
And how to survive as it all becomes slowly undone

As a global entity, a universal race, how are we to succeed?
If upon each other we continue to feed
Into the misty haze of the future, our history does bleed
And Earth shall reclaim , when our time on this planet we do exceed
