Fifteen - Perfection Lyrics
The brain tends to divide between what's yours and what is mineAnd what it believes to be wrong and rightThe brain does not seem to know that we all share the same homeAnd existence is a fact it's not a rightThe land is the land, the sky is the sky, the water belongs to all of usAnd I can find no reason to mutilate our mother with fences and bordersAnd obsessive thinking, of proving our individualityYeah, so what can you do when your fellow man, criminalizes your planFor getting by, and the presence of your body means you've actedIrresponsibly, and you've failed to be born before all the world was takenYeah, and you got nowhere to call home, on a globe, 22,000 miles aroundAnd gravity breeds illegality cause it'll always bring you downOn someone else's piece of groundThe brain seems to think with enough manipulationThe brain could be master of the sea, the land, the skyThe poor little brain could not seem to realizeThat no measure of intelligence could ever improve uponThe land is the land, the sky is the sky, the water belongs to all of usAnd I can find no reason to mutilate our mother with fences and bordersAnd obsessive thinking, of proving our individualityYeah, we can put a man on the moon, but that won't help usWhen the ground's too poisoned and there ain't water enoughLeft to grow our foodAnd rhinoplasty and transplanted hair will keep us sexyAs we slowly die from poisons in the air we breatheYeah, we can build a town in half a day, blow each other all awayGo home latter on that day, watch it all on the evening newsDespite our age of information, It won't help us without wisdomAnd all our ingenuity, has only brought us to the brink of AnnihilationTechnology cannot replace responsibilityAnd 55(m.p.h.) don't justify our own poisoningAnd progress seems like backwards lies, cause we all started off with paradiseSo leave your mark on our world by leaving no mark at all(moreno)Maybe it's security Maybe it's simple amibitionMaybe it's insanity Maybe it's just good old tradition
