Saddest Song

(album: More Betterness! - 1999)

What's wrong with everyone? There's a panic in their eyes
Like others getting close are aliens, in disguise
They smell conspiracy on the lips of dearest friends
Reminds me of a time long ago, They think it's the end

Of what we all created, used to love but now we hate it
Life is as simple as the mind it lives in
The truth is a waste of time, when we're conditioned to understand
Lies are the right was as we watch the blind leading the blind

Everything that we see is another's suffering
Learn to enjoy the message the TV is delivering
You're safe being the glass like being at the zoo
The face of guilty thoughts turns around and looks just like you

Don't want be another, victim but you watch them suffer
Organized, de-sensitized and trained
To wake up at 6 AM, go to work come home and in bed by ten
When the feeling is safe and warm
Horrified by any change, living by consensus destroys us
Paints pretty pictures at the same time will do us more harm
