Li(V)es

I found myself
3 years ago
Didn’t need meditation or
Any kind of control
As quick as I rose
Sliding back into despondency yeah
Nothing is permanent
But change
Do you visualise?
Do you believe you’ll make it right?
Do you think you’ll rise in spite of
The great divide
Or will you cower, cover your ears
Detach until you disappear?
This is modern life now
And the stories they tell…
You’re in control
Be your best friend
Contentment is inside you
It’s not a place at the end
When I am true
To myself I find
I find
Life is my own design
Our time on Earth is short
They keep you working/drinking
You’re not thinking smart
When you’re only just surviving
Question all; our lives, their lies
They want you dumb and compromised
This is modern life now
And the stories they tell…
Even with our eyes we see different waves of energy, different reality
Everything around us is just interpretation
Are you waiting for a revelation? For the summer? For a holiday?
Or do you need to be told that death is on its way?
And the stories they tell…
We don’t need the might of fear to bless us or forbid
We know in ourselves whats good and whats destructive
We don’t need the threat of guilt to be good people
If we can’t think for ourselves, we can’t live without help
If we can’t think for ourselves, we’ll buy every story they sell
