Barking dogs and blaring sirens in the distance

Murdered dead body in the city morgue

Illegal automatic weapons across the border

Hard drugs and the working whore

Cheating politicians creating the law

Sinners deep within the church acting immoral

Couples having sex in any company corporation office

Kidnappers on the loose performing implore able

Many, many secrets between bonded lovers

Family unit in the suburbs in turmoil

Kid getting in fights at school and failing classes

Food on the dinner table is always spoiled

Controlling mass media in every corner

Just turn on the morning, afternoon, and evening news

Reality television reflecting society’s follies

All this crap just gives you the freaking anxiety blues

I know there is hope somewhere out there

Maybe in a good unread dusty book

Maybe across the Internet digital divide

Or just maybe in a real human stranger’s look

Time is running out for all of us my friend

It will get both you and me in the end

We must start being nice to each other again

Before God decides to hit send

So let’s gaze towards the promising future

And learn from the struggled past

For now live in the immediate present moment

And hold on very, very tight because the ride is getting very, very fast…
