A Childhood With Open Eyes

Have you ever seen the moon as bright as I did that night
in the dream that wasn’t dreamt
and the life that was?

And have you ever seen something so terrifying that wasn’t even there
in amongst the trees downhill,
where you’ve never felt so scared?

That man didn’t walk over to you and never said a word.
No, he had no tongue to spit at you with,
no tongue to poison your innocent mind
with rules and regulations that turn us all to stone
and subtle manipulation that turned them into clones.

Let’s push our minds as far as they’ve never been
with the substances that kill us.
Let’s fly in the depths of the unknown
where the hypocrites warn us not to go.
