We live in a political
world,
Love don't have any place.
We're living in times where men
commit crimes
And crime don't have a face
We live in a political
world,
Icicles hanging down,
Wedding bells ring and angels
sing,
clouds cover up the ground.
We live in a political
world,
Wisdom is thrown into jail,
It rots in a cell, is misguided
as hell
Leaving no one to pick up a trail.
We live in a
political world
Where mercy walks the plank,
Life is in mirrors,
death disappears
Up the steps into the nearest bank.
We live in
a political world
Where courage is a thing of the past
Houses are
haunted, children are unwanted
The next day could be your
last.
We live in a political world.
The one we can see and can
feel
But there's no one to check, it's all a stacked deck,
We all
know for sure that it's real.
We live in a political world
In
the cities of lonesome fear,
Little by little you turn in the
middle
But you're never why you're here.
We live in a political
world
Under the microscope,
You can travel anywhere and hang
yourself there
You always got more than enough rope.
We live in
a political world
Turning and a'thrashing about,
As soon as you're
awake, you're trained to take
What looks like the easy way
out.
We live in a political world
Where peace is not welcome at
all,
It's turned away from the door to wander some more
Or put up
against the wall.
We live in a political world
Everything is
hers or his,
Climb into the frame and shout God's name
But you're
never sure what it is.
