Living In The Electronic Age

People are in such a state of denial.
The fast pace of time and revelation,
Has kept many stuck,
In traditional mentalities.

People in research to discover,
How life was like...
Back at a time before the civil war,
Are not soon going to recover...
Living in the electronic age.

And those who still believe,
That the TV is a toy...
And annoyed by the power,
It communicates twenty four hours a day...
Are soon going to find their thinking obsolete.
And the price they have paid,
Seeking to live in the lap of luxury.

People are in such a state of denial.
The fast pace of time and revelation,
Has kept many stuck,
In traditional mentalities.
