The balance of power has shifted the land is sliding.
A harbinger of doom delivers me glad tidings.
Waiting like a vulture for a cash tip hand outstretched.
When the truth is close to home it often sounds far fetched.
Truth be told society is crumbling the walls are closing in.
Peel me like an onion from my plastic card skin.
Rub salt into my wounds just to make me scream.
Does a manikin shop dummy get bored or is life but a dream.
Window shopping for luxuries that can be never be bought.
The hardest lessons in life are the often painfully self taught.
Don't put your trust in me or someone else.
If you want to believe in something then go find it for yourself.
Actions can be costly but words are often cheap.
Promises are like pet tigers they are very hard to keep.
So try and fly below the radar and stay off the power grid.
By keeping things in plain sight is the best place to stay hid.
Don't fear the shadows there's no monsters in the dark.
It's what lies right in front of you that can tear your world apart.
If life is a bed of roses then the thorns remind us of the pain.
Excitement can get so boring in the world of the mundane.
Where a fluffy little kitten on Facebook gets 40 million views.
But a breakthrough in cancer research barely makes the news.
Our brains are shutting down we are becoming obsolete.
Like lambs to the slaughter we are nothing more than sheep.
Told what to do almost pre programmed how to react.
I was told the moon is made of green cheese but I don't know it for a fact.
Just because someone swears it on the Bible doesn't make it true.
I'm innocent your honour of having a guilty point of view.
I don't sit in judgement like King Solomon I ain't that wise.
An open mouth catches nothing but flies.
So it's best to keep your mouth shut and open your eyes.
See the bigger picture before you rush in and decide.
Don't jump on the bandwagon you'll get carried away.
Everyone starts fighting over the music but they never get to play.
I'd sooner stick to my own opinion and whistle my own tune.
As I eat a green cheese sandwich that was manufactured on the moon.
It says it on the sandwich box so I guess it must be true.
Why on earth don't you believe it, I wouldn't lie to you.
But it's nice to see you doubt me at least you're thinking for yourself.
When it comes to thinking, don't leave the thinking to someone else.
Make your own decisions in life don't let others decide such things.
Or you'll just be another puppet letting someone pull your strings.
