Michael McGuire The Human Situation Lyrics

THE HUMAN SITUATION
© Electric Babylon Music Author: M.M.


An experiment in pessimism, led to a breakthrough, an expert in
masochism, and he’s willing to teach you, nothing ends where nothing
starts, throw away the left over parts.
I’ll defend this masquerade, while you pretend you’ve got it made.
A dream dance in waking sense, led to a nightmare, try hard to make
repents. or try hard not to care, one way in and no way out, act assured
when in doubt.
I’ll amend this psychology, while you apply this philosophy.
A notch-hole in reality, led to the grand illusion, a utopian fantasy, and a one line conclusion, it’s now a ghost town, don’t bother to come around.
I’ll advise these ill breed planers, you revise these death bed manners.
A pinpointed mechanical precision, led to a human error, one moment of
indecision, an eternity of terror, feeding on the endless need, choking on
the mindless greed.
I’ll protect these man made fears. you collect these hand made tears.
A bright spot in dark heart, led to a poets pen, but the waters didn’t part,
stuck on the shore again, body talk and soul castration, this is the human
situation.
