Running On The Spot |
| I was hoping we’d make real progress — |
| But it seems we have lost the power |
| Any tiny step of advancement |
| Is like a raindrop falling into the ocean — |
| We’re running on the spot — always have — always will? |
| We’re just the next generation of the emotionally crippled. |
| Though we keep piling up the building blocks |
| The structure never seems to get any higher |
| Because we keep kicking out the foundations |
| And stand useless while our lives fall down. |
| I believe in life — and I believe in love |
| But the world in which I live in — keeps trying to prove me wrong. |
| Out in the pastures we call society |
| You can’t see further than the bottom of your glass |
| Only young but easily shocked |
| You get all violent when the boat gets rocked — |
| Just like sheep — little lambs into the slaughter |
| Don’t fully grasp what exactly is wrong — |
| Truth is you never cared — still — |
| You get all violent when the boat gets rocked — |
| Intelligence should be our first weapon |
| And stop reveling in rejection |
| And follow yourselves, not some ageing drain brain |
| Whose quite content to go on feeding you garbage |
| We’re running on the spot — always have — always will? |
| We’re just the next generation of the emotionally crippled. |
