Artificial Reality

If they could see,
The lives they live
Change

Living behind a wall
The other side so strange
Corrupted by the power
The people so afraid
The people so sick

If they could see
The real world
Change

Belonging in this wall
The people so small
Conceived by lies and Alibis s
Talk of one all so wrong
Secretly running all along

If they could see
Overseas
Change

Corrupted by there own
Nothing can be seen
Nothing can be felt

Living in an artificial reality
Telling themselves there right
Nothing to fear
Since they have there excuses
Nothing to See
Since a wall erects

If they could see
The price they pay
Change

They say their brave
But when you live behind a wall
There isn't anything to face
Since were the ones who see
The bombs red glare

If they could see
The streets corrupted
Change

With a land so pure
A conspiracy so true
Why most god bless
If so ideal

If they could see
What needs to be blessed
Change

Living in an artificial reality
Telling themselves there right
Nothing to hear
But whats on Tv
Nothing to Feel
Since they have their world

This land filled with lies
Corrupted by their own kind
Dreaming on
Creeping on
Freedom is the expression
In this land behind walls
