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.
