babylon

[vagabond]

babylon                                                                              (edit 2017)
 
everyone has to believe in progress,
this logic religion, built like a fortress.
we work and we gain for safety and wealth
and try to secure our emotions and health.
 
everything´s there just for gathering more,
riches increasing together with fear.
chaining our hearts and dissolving our bones,
so we drink the calf´s milk to stay happily stoned.
 
now that´s our evolution: to grow without moving,
and this is our knowledge: repeat and then store it,
no need for truth or even decent confusion
when we can believe in the perfect delusion
 




old version:

babylon

believe in fortune, believe in progress
this blinding religion, impressive fortress
we work and we build for safety and wealth
and try to secure our emotions and health

we are gathering more, more and more
riches increasing together with fear
chaining our hearts and dissolving our bones
but there are methods to be happily stoned

that´s our evolution: to grow without moving
this is our knowledge: repeat and then store it
that´s how we love: no need to follow desire,
when we can create the perfect chimaera
