I returned back to the world last night
And someone had stolen my dreams
I’d left them alone with
my keys and my phone
yes someone has stolen my dreams
the truth’s been lined up against the wall again
and honesty’s been shot in the back
she’s been left to die
like a random drive by
yes honesty’s been shot in the back
Insanity is rampant and hatred’s in vogue
The future’s been strangled at birth
with no golden days
just the sun’s final rays
yes future’s been strangled at birth
Wisdom’s been banished and empathy vanished
and the yellow brick road has been sold
to a small group of men
who’ll no doubt sell it again
yes the yellow brick road has been sold
I switched on a screen and wanted to scream
whilst watching the whole thing implode
but no bang or whimper
there was barely a simper
when watching the whole thing implode
A friend slid off the earth today
Hardly anybody noticed he’d gone...
