Were sitting on the wall
They do it every day

They talk about their little quirks
And none of them...

Discarded and thrown away if considered unfit,

We looked at the world through rose-colored glasses,
sped through the night under blue moons,
parked in cars and gave boys the green light.

Explored gray areas, dreamed of golden boys,
painted the town red and got caught red-handed.

And the other kind of coco (cocaine)
On a high horse, acting like your the major-domo

Looking into the future how might it seem?
Will the hierarchy have become supreme?
Will bio warfare become the norm?
Mutations of viruses in all shapes and form.

Why can't you just stay here with me,

Waywardly distant and constantly on guard

Constantly the burden is...
