You Do Not Know How To Think

There’s a way inbetween worlds

An open secret

Desquised by five lies tangled up in a sensory overload

In a mad scramble we’ve confused ourselves

And forgotten our way

Thinking thoughts are the same as feelings what we’ve done is forget to feel real for each other

People are people and it’s sad to watch

The people marching to a linear tune

Of tick

And tock

Life lived according to a clock on the wall

Going from A to B, success measured by peers along the way

That’s no life at all

We’ve forgetten our way and gotten lost in the “Real World”

Neglecting all the immaterial treasures that made us Human in the first place

Because we got to where we’re going and that was good enough

So we turned our back on the magick

And turned ourselves into plastic
