The Other Side of Reality
Our minds reality let's have ourselves a taste
Such a marvelous thing should not go to waste
It's all held inside our perceptive view
Are we not what we say and do
What if we say one thing then do another
All in the name of "I love you brother"
Well brother's I say with the saddest of grins
We were not made to live our lives in a pen
Wolves to sheep living in herds
As barb-wire trims feathers off the bird
Well where is the party the night on the town
We are nothing but ghost as they shake us down
Let's all raise our pruno and offer a toast
Brothers deserted by our good friend the host
Well I offer a dare if you're the type
Come eat of the fruit I promise it's ripe
I'll teach you to change inside of this place
Just look through the ghost and remember your face
Just think of three things that you need to do
To make a better person of you
Then apply those things one at a time
For all things in life must follow design
Before long you will start to see
The other side of reality
