Humanity is a knot And humans are the strings We are connected by our actions Until we choose to disconnect By plucking our own individual strings And start unraveling ourselves from the knot Once enough strings are removed The knot is untied As we've lost connection Strings are now subject to the wind And begin to wither without the knot And without the strings The knot is nothing What brings the knot back Is war Fueled by famine We tangle each other in terror Where the strings must be maneuvered with precision So we may form a knot
The shroud of strings blinds itself As war wraps us in calamity But after all the wars we've fought Is this the connection we've got? Humanity is a knot
