The unknown future rolls toward us
We, the jilted generation, as we are
told
And
We are faced
Faced with the threat of our own genocide
Not
through war
Not through hate
But through fear
We face the death of a salesman
The death of a nation
We are suffocated
by greed
We are strangled by fear
Everyday we set foot in our world
Our world of 'peace'
Our world of
'pieces'
We have no truth and all lies
Our world, precious to
inherit
Is choking on our vanity
Mother earth in her glory
Rests in a watery grave
Among the bones and
wastes of their failure
And we
We, as the glorious children of
tomorrow
Sit
Sit transfixed to a fucking screen
Living our lives
through fantasized reality and generations of deceit
We live others lives
Judging where we, cannot judge our own
We pick like vultures at bones of the large
We ignore, we hate
We
preach and they fail
On and on we go
Around and around this sickness
They set an imitation of life
That all can follow
That all can persuade
and render themselves to an early death
PRAISE JESUS!!!
He leads us to our ignorant discrimination
A will to
life?
A way to death
We race to our inevitable retirement
The truth, ignored
Like the stars
falling
We venture into our own bedside
They meet at a large
coffin
Waiting for us to nail ourselves in
Our indulgence
Our failure
This Life
This Trend
Follow to the End
My Friends.
