children growing up in a bewildering moral landscape what is right, what is wrong, what is politically correct with mindless amusements or habits they seek escape the media, education, religion they all opposing direct the parents fared no better, controlled and farmed by big corporation forced to deny and reject healthy lifestyles for a media fairyland fears of security used to control peoples and their co-operation many disillusioned escape in drugs or simply bury their head in sand The true God is rejected and must not interfere in education or morals unborn are murdered, the sick, the old, the unproductive used as guinea pigs manliness, bravery, patriotism are rejected garlanded with florals out is male and female, in is all manner of sexual thingamajiggs is it any wonder the young are confused good is condemned and evil behaviour excused brainwashed by legal lies that the real truth is refused the future looking foggy and so none is enthused What is truth asked once a ruler to Him who is the truth What is truth, what is the meaning asks today's youth Where will they get their truth in a morass of lies Who will lead them to the truth, who will hear their cries
