I drank from the fountain just to spit it out and spray it
across the withered faces of elders seldom heard
ill spread the word by quickening their reincarnation
lay a foundation across this baron wasteland of acrid brains
gray-matter faced in dismay with lifeless waveforms
fallen like acorns away from the fruits of salvation
consider your place in this alienated race
as the world turns our souls burn
then we die like stars spiralling through space
all the while blinded by time designed and fine-tuned
to the illusion that we as humans are saints
our fear breeds our hate and
we can only be afraid of staying the same
we can only hate what we cant relate to
we created this ball and chain of anguish and shame
like slaves it remains at our ankles
tortured and tamed to submit
to ancient unexplained languages
strange myths that cant predict or change the path of fate
just fabricates a state of sedation
so take all your brain waves trade it away for some spare change
possession is obsession if its not a tool it's a weapon
we are distracted our reactions are too random and unexpected to fathom
it's so twisted conscious of this existence
the divinity that we seek only present when we sleep
its fleeting and the meaning is hiding behind the scenes
the reason driving these feelings seems to be so deceiving
like treason against the being that created the seasons
we are cheating our own dreams left with nothing to redeem us
the time has come to deeply see what we claim to believe
it's our turn our hearts yearn to converge factual spirituality
how can we enlighten our minds with stories and metaphors
of save-yours dying in tragedy piling up at our feet
we are all lost sheep gathering in herds to the nearest Shepard
whose message is too obscure to reach.
