Mechanics

Bull crap greases the cogs The lies spin the wheels Misconceptions never under appeal Politicians sucking us dry Blood spilled for glory and pride? Money runs dry Freedoms disappearing at the blink of an eye Military jets transgressing the blue sky And the people looking up wishing they could fly Flying away from their troubles and fears Reaching for the moon and stars near Dieing to be apart of something greater Living to appease an absent creator Watching another's life as if in a movie theater Dreaming how to be a better dreamer Sweet dreams little dreamer
