Once you discover the trap And complacency doesn't attract you And somehow you're chosen to escape You're led down false corridors Teeming with treachery and danger And they are following you, to kill you if you haven't died To obliterate your secret knowledge Because one who really knows is a threat to the establishment Where all kinds of causes and occupations Are offered to generate compliance Religions to believe, jobs to perform, antagonist groups to join, underground societies If you can't find a place here, what are you? The outcast of civilization, the unbeliever One who couldn't conform even to non-conformity One who saw the façade So you seek a way out Using your free mind to negate charms And the enticing beacons of satisfaction That left you sleeping in the dawn Until the day a crack broke through, and you saw a glimpse of reality Or at least you saw the futility that ensnares the world And offers complacent existence to those who accept a way of life
