This life is a complex one
And it’s hard to figure out
The truth from the lies
What to believe and what to doubt
So we have to question everything and don’t believe a thing
Because it seems the world we’re living in is short of honesty.

When did this all happen or is it part of who we are
Is it in mankind’s make up a side of us that’s dark
Or did we lose our way somewhere down the path of life
Or Lose our moral compass telling us what is wrong and right.

I know I am generalising and making judgements which I hate
And this does not apply to everyone
Just those filled with greed and hate
And those that fight for power and use God’s name in vain
Politicians priests and businessmen
The ones that know no shame.

We I am sure we are not all perfect for me I know for sure
But I was never in a position of implementing any laws
Either laid down by government or laid down by the Lord
These were the one who were to set an example to us all.

So if I have a hope for the future it’s that the people can change their ways
Set a new high standard for being truthful in every way
But I guess this a utopian dream
And I don’t hold out much hope
Don’t believe they can change but give them enough rope
They hoist themselves on their own petards and we will have the last laugh
When their world comes crumbling round their ears because the lies that come out of their mouths.
