Whose Morals

At full volume,
you let all know you know whats going on,
whats right to one
to others is wrong.
you can force feed it,
til we passively recieve it,
is one opinion better than none
if you dont need it?
minds become uniform in groups,
and theres nothing quite as flexible as truth
and thats true.
commodities like truth have got any definition
and money changes hands in secure payments.
pick your favourite.
and proudly propagandize
make sure to run forth
and hype it like it'll save our lives.
and fight the other side
liked you were paid to lie
smile for the camera
and say that they provoked the tab.
keep it like a boys club
your free with g.w.b.
but you cant chose your sisters, and brothers, and others.
with chins high as midsummer
talking?
you need your meaning of live
more than i need yours,
ive got one that functions ok,
though as scattered as it is,
home is where the attic is,
and the heart is where panic lives.
what matters is not outstreched hands
from false prophets,
trying in vain to catch the substance
like a comet.
this just to much that they could never understand
and with such great plans,
we're all confused as ever.

what do you expect of us?
if you wanna trust
then try you must,
to reach with an honest hand.

what do you expect of us?
if you wanna trust
then try you must,
to speak like an honest man.

im not asking for a moral,
a patriotic motto,
a try-your-luck emotion angle lotto,
im quite happy without influence.
and my intuition stays tight with trust,
so you can imagine i could never
accept your truth,
version, or moral view
or what you expect of the youth.
what you expect of the peace-brining troops,
or minority groups,
what you expect of the feds when your storing up nukes,
how to respect someone who is ignoring you,
and condraticting all with doctorinated values,
and malnutrition ethical foundations
of which you take aim from,
means i'll never wait on your every word.
is that bonus information i heard?
or a policy i heard to actually serve
people over profits.
how can i follow in footsteps of those in office
when every speech is just another empty promise?
how can i follow in footsteps of those in office
when every speech is just another empty promise?

what do you expect of us?
if you wanna trust
then try you must,
to reach with an honest hand.

what do you expect of us?
if you wanna trust
then try you must,
to speak like an honest man.
