1.
Greenland had melted and the rivers did rise
We fled from the waters to the mountainous skies
Drilled in the earth and built cities inside
Reclaimed civilization, a utopia, we tried
We elected great leaders, made our own rules
Demanded the best and executed the fools
But please heed my words when I say
All is not what it seems
When they take you away
Because you keep having dreams
So listen my children
My words are all true
Utopia's not so great
When they're coming
After you
2.
Between the rainbow and the golden lake
The shiny city now stands
Amongst the mortals who broke the gods
Just as utopia demands
Their carried minds bred for forced labor
Here comes one now for you
Be true to self be honest to soul
Or you'll become one too
Ask three blackbirds to sing of peace
While flying thru the sand
Ask three blind fish to speak of truth
While swimming thru the sky
And I'll see you
Where time rips thru
The machines in utopia's garden
3.
The cascading ruins of civilization
Corrupted by the madness of politicians
Which controlled the masses
Who huddled in poverty and shame
Cancelled our rights, erased the constitution
For the Inquisition of innocent minds
I blanked out and lest them lead me astray
4.
Behind the machines of utopia's garden
Dwell the evil lords in charge of our fate
They took our hopes and dreams of peace
And used them against us to keep us safe
When bush pooped his pants
They started treating us
Like piss ants
5.
New utopia was founded
To keep our feet grounded
