"Time to stop this dreaming"... open your eyes... wake up.
"The trees and I are shaken by the same winds but whereas
The trees will lose their withered leaves
I just can't seem to let them loose"... shaken by reality, it's the illusion I don't want to loose.
"Then addicted to a perfumed poison
Betrayed by its aftertaste"... the deadly lies we have been fed and the institutions that have betrayed people.
"Beware the fisherman who's casting out his line
Into a dried up river bed
But don't try to tell him 'cause he won't believe you"... beware those who are setting up the trap for mankind... don't try to convince him, it's useless.
"Throw some bread to the ducks instead, it's easier that way
Feel like an alien, a stranger in an alien place"... people will laugh at what you have to say... it will make you feel like the alien you really are, in alien planet.
