Running On The Spot

I was hoping wed make real progress
But it seems we have lost the power
Any tiny step of advancement
Is like a raindrop falling into the ocean
Were running on the spot always have always will ?
Were just the next generation of the emotionally criplled

Though we keep piling up the building blocks
The structure never seems to get any higher
Because we keep kicking out the foundations
And stand useless while our lives fall down
I believe in life and I believe in love
But the world in whice I live in keeps trying to prov wrong

Out the pastures we call society
You ant see further than the bottom of your glass
Only you but easily shocked
You get all violent when the boats gets rocked

Just like sheep little lambs into the slaughter
Dont fully grasp what exactly is wrong
Truth is you never cared still
You get all violent when the boats gets rocked

Intelligence should be our first weapon
And stop reveling in rejection
And follow yourseles not some ageing drain brain
Whose quite content to go on feedind your garbage
Were running on the spot always have always will?
Were just the next generation of the emotionally crippled
