OUR CAGES

(CYCLE: BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL)

Locked in cages, bred, dumbfounded

Often already from early childhood

Feeding sweet-fat propaganda poison

In cages for shows in delight exhibited

When goverment passes that down

In cages they can’t see at all the bars

If we give key to open they won’t want

There still a lot of such terrible people

They could destroy entire great Earth

When wars, rebellion throw them out

They’re going crazy like sheeps, volves

And they leader a next despot become

Then they will be pushed for cages again

Cages of their assigned roles and apanages

And You, a good, smart , free, creative man

The one they failed to fool, imprison or kill

Society wants You freely to lock yourself

In the nice enough cage of Your solitude

Always don’t let it, don’t be so fooled

Always look for people like You, free, smart

Support each other, together inspire, fight

For of humanity progress, as of God Wills

Those terrible people will slowly die out

Like flowers cut alive trapped in a vase

Like evil spirits locked in a hellish bootle

But only if You will leave solitude’s cage

And Your kids won’t be poisoned by lie

Imagine how wonderful the world can be

And how it can be bad, cruel and grim

People of good will are roses among weeds

They are like stars in a dark, cloudy winter sky

When the sky brightens, the weeds die out

The world will be georgeous like our dreams

It will be more georgeous than our images

But only if You will leave solitude’s cage

Then true human solidarity total defeats
