What You’ve Become

Lyrics

This is what you’ve become

Your fear fueled by fire made from dinosaurs and forests

digitized and sanctified by markets and their forces again and again

And this is what we’ve become

Living in your boxes made of stories to survive while losing all relation to what tells us we’re alive

We sink or swim

What have you got to lose?

All control that’s ruled by fear and all the building blocks of hatred would be a start if we could choose.

So how can we break this spell?

Riding progress like an arrow dipped in poison over centuries

mining heaven, building hell

This is what you’ve become

Given all the lifetimes that it took to bring us here you’d think that you would learn that only love can overcome this fear you hide
