Illusion of Purpose Lyrics

No one life holds greater value

Open your mind birth comes anew

All born from shared circumstance but we don't have to accept it

Experience our earth build the connections and push toward rejection

Pull yourself from your last ties that hold you to a system of thought

Pretense of purpose all life is equal let their values rot

We destroy what is real to build in ourselves an illusion of purpose

Come into life with the capacity for compassion

Vessels given a chance to comprehend and come to respect our world and all life

But we are torn

Pushed into a sterile world

Values and goals dictated by a self blinding social power structure

Knowing only what it is told the child grows

Alienation from life separateness from emotion destitute of feeling

The itching comes on

I want out get me out of here

I want out get me out of here

I want out get me out of here

I want out get me out of here
