Will someone ever love enough
To light another star?
All I want is someone to release the world
And all the filth we are
I still believe in one
Why is it that the truth of today
Is more valid than the truth of yesterday?
Do people really believe that
We have learned enough to even know what truth is?
I know that I myself have no idea
So my bet is that most people are clueless too
Who decides what truth is?
It is really smart to let biased reporters
Of a market economy news selling institution
Dictate what we shall believe and think?
What kind of qualification do they have
To perform their smeared ink
Brain surgery on the unknowing
Cretins of modern society, as far as I know
There is no license required to be a journalist
And they don't really need any training
As far as I know all you have to be is a liar
Will someone ever love enough
To light another star?
All I want is someone to release the world
And all the filth we are
I still believe in one
What is truth or common sense?
It is just the current media hype at a factor of ten
Isn't it a variable that is ever shifting
Ever changing every couple of years?
Two hundred years ago it was common sense
To have slaves, we don't believe in that now
Fifty years ago or so it was illegal to be gay
And it was legal to rape your wife
We don't believe in that now either
But if common sense can change that much
In just fifty or two hundred years
What is there to say that
It won't change tomorrow?
No one knows what the truth of tomorrow will be
But I do know who is going to invent it
And I do know who is going to look back at
The truths of our time and tell us they were lie
Will someone ever love enough
To light another star?
All I want is someone to release the world
And all the filth we are
I still believe in one
Will someone ever love enough
To light another star?
All I want is someone to release the world
And all the filth we are
I still believe in one
