I’m treading water through lies
So thick that I might drown
I come across one solid truth
And hang on for my life
The fog of lies grows thicker
And yet I find another
I’m building something true
A grounded world view
Everything’s wrong
Everything’s upside down
Trust was a song
A dream from a long time ago
And we with our feet in the dirt
Are banned
Too heavy for virtual bliss
They’re all the same
Mindless and on repeat
Spirits all tame
Passion for shallow useless lies
We the remaining humans
Turn the long poisoned soil
We feed it our sweat and blood
We somehow survive
Meanwhile the drones
Succubi of sustenance
Sweeping overhead
Extracting every last hope
We plant our seeds in the dust
Water with droplets and care
Grounded with bare feet we strive
For life on a separate plain
Too heavy for virtual bliss
And still a more meaningful life
Greeting the sun with a smile
Everything’s wrong
Everything’s upside down
Trust was a song
A dream from a long time ago
And we with our feet in the dirt
Are banned
Too heavy for virtual bliss
We the remaining humans
Turn the long poisoned soil
We feed it our sweat and blood
We somehow survive
We plant our seeds in the dust
Water with droplets and care
Grounded with bare feet we strive
For life on a separate plain
Too heavy for virtual bliss
And still a more meaningful life
Greeting the sun with a smile
