If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say that
the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.
George Carlin
God created, in his image and likeness,
a species bleeding from the tip of an ice pick.
Cold, timid and lifeless, infinite timeless
limitless might, switched between minions of childish,
decisions of fright. No opinions are right,
only positions of strife, divisions of plight,
diminishing light and hope, a lightning strike,
a hoax despite the lives we choke,
by the throat, it's precisely why the globe,
has denied us both, land and sea to stand in reach.
Rather we remain part of a planned defeat,
eventually every man's deceased in the sand beneath.
Instead of planting trees and raising lands of beasts,
we stampede with our fantasies, of unmanned machines,
phantom freedoms from every damned disease.
Watching as our families remain in this trite oblivion,
as mindless citizens, dividing such minor dividends,
to try to live within completely blinding ignorance.
The earth is melting, but the worthless selling
of material objects remains the focus of progress.
Kids with imperfect spelling, in certain dwellings
remain hopeless in contest with only the "hot trends."
Broken from the poisons we digest, and frozen
from the ointments applied when, were coping
with the voices inside heads, the choices we find
stress, and to avoid it we find death...
Appointments with annoyance and over paid,
employees with the answers, or so they say.
Till you're hit with cancer and only days
pass when they say that surgery's the only way.
Only to die on the table, the lies and the fables,
now paying for surgery with the money that you rely on to pay bills.
You survived? Now you take pills...
For a cold it used to be Day Quill,
now it's medicine for that incredible pain that you say kills.
God created us, in his image, it was his dreamscape.
Were just a failed experiment ejected into deep space.
It seems great, living in your sweet place,
until you're replaced.
Do something about it you lazy fucks.
