What’s the point of history It’s all been done before Reporters dictate their story Continue to create the lure Nothing we say is reality Nothing we hear is finality Nothing we touch is totality It’s all an illusion no one compares It’s all an illusion no one shares So many hold onto the past Cling to what they have been told Never to answer questions asked Destined to become part of the mold Nothing we say is reality Nothing we hear is finality Nothing we touch is totality It’s all an illusion no one compares It’s all an illusion no one shares It’s never really true Those lies before our eyes Twisting everything askew Masking truth into a disguise Nothing we say is reality Nothing we hear is finality Nothing we touch is totality It’s all an illusion no one compares It’s all an illusion no one shares When all is revealed Disappointment sets in We’ve held so high our shield And mourn what we had been |
