Shutter Bug
The big problem we have today,
no one will lend a helping hand.
Until they’ve pulled out their cell phones,
to take all the pictures they can.
There’s nowhere left for us to run,
they see inside each hiding place.
All the thoughts that we’ve ever had,
are being broadcast into space.
No one really cares anymore,
about trying to find the truth.
As long as they are the first one,
to bring the latest made-up news.
The power of the media,
has put dark blinders on our eyes.
We can’t see any path forward,
because we can’t get past their lies.
You think this is a fantasy,
but the time is going to come.
Each choice we make will be scripted,
and all our freedoms will be gone.
