Traversing The Fantasy

Line your pockets
Off the backs of the weak
Labor comes so cheap
When times are dark and bleak
The free hand will fix all
The flags will rise one and all

Sinking deep we cannot breathe
As plastic men live like thieves
Plotting to secure our means
Dependent on constant feed
Constructing an endless need
Programming designed to breed
Servants sprung from demon seed
Never will we hold the keys

Eternal misery, since the start of history
Only this and nothing else
The dark secret of the self
Hurt from all the mental violence
But form and thought are reliant
On the forces that defy us
Crushing us beneath their feet

They tell us we are less
Then expect us to meet demands
Broken bodies built the tower
But can't bridge the gap
Of wealth and power

Faced with a life without
Psychic discretion
Killing ourselves
In vain desperation
Consuming without end
From birth 'til death
And over again!

For tortured minds there's no rest
Our souls become vermin's nest
Growing problems can be solved
Only when we lose resolve
Accept that there is an order
Never cross the golden border
Hoist your burden on your shoulder
Heavy stone, brick and mortar.

God-like beings from the stars
Sent to inflict mental scars
Helping us to build the bars
To a prison meant for us
Share your cell with sub-mankind
Struggle for the right to die
Take whatever lives you will
In the end you'll pay the bill.

They tell us we are less
Then expect us to meet demands
Broken bodies built the tower
But can't bridge the gap
Of wealth and power

We are the children of
Greed and the orphan
Beaten to obey with senseless devotion
Burned alive for causing commotion
Torn from the womb
Depleted, disposed of

Here we are we've reached the end
Too much anguish to pretend
That we live and are not dead
All our lives spent needing sleep
Help to build a vile keep
Fortified with evil deeds
That keeps us from being free
Always bound in slavery
For in the end all is lost
But for those who set the cost
Evil writers of the script
One act left, who will live
Evil words are everywhere
But we are too weak to care
They own our hearts and our minds
So it is now for all time!

They tell us we are less
Then expect us to meet demands
Broken bodies built the tower
But can't bridge the gap
Of wealth and power
