We want to feel big We want to feel important But all our lives, even the best Fade and lie, deep down underground Kindness is an anomaly For our natural mind Rest is not ideal or viable Love could save our kind But kindness cannot save our lives For centuries and many years We fight and cry and repeat it all again No sheer force of will, no more accidents The gears of society are fueled by blood Peace is our false consensus

False Consensus
We want to feel big We want to feel important But all our lives, even the best Fade and lie, deep down underground Kindness is an anomaly For our natural mind Rest is not ideal or viable Love could save our kind But kindness cannot save our lives For centuries and many years We fight and cry and repeat it all again No sheer force of will, no more accidents The gears of society are fueled by blood Peace is our false consensus
