Gotta be your own saviour...

You're busted.
Ho ho!
You been outed!
From Head to Toe.

I woke up just after the turn of the century. (Gotta think)
The whole world had gone crazy. (Gotta pause)
The left became the right. (Gotta be)
And the right became the left.
Both sides were fighting cardboard cutouts. (Your own Saviour)
Characters of each other.

Are you lonely?
Woof woof wag your tale join the club
It's all baloney!
You cant find love?

People turned to celebrities for salvation
But these were the junk food of leadership
They looked and seemed the same
But with no real substance
All those years of refining our brains through evolution
Only to follow Miley Cyrus to the voting booth.

Some people worshipped fale prophets
Who got their news by channelling mysterious entities
Others worshipped celebrities who sold their souls to get famous
Nobody worshipped the truth because the truth became relative
To whatever team you were on.

Gotta think. Gotta Pause. Gotta be your own saviour.

Ya/ve blown it.
So give it up.
You've outgrown it
Ain't you had enough?

I opened a window
Fresh air like salvation came like kisses after Armageddon
Clouds wink as they rolled by and the even waved at me
Ive been saved by the background hum of the Universe
Just by surrendering to the rhythm
And now I can fainlly see through the noise.
Homo- Sapiens are not the first
Nor are we the last
Nor are we the worst either.

But we have to leanr to think for ourselves.

Is that so hard?

Is it?

JUST GET BACK IN YOUR BOX!
