There are no conspiracies, just scared groups of people who haven't learned how to cope with a spinning world that they can't spin all by themselves.


Too far

We are private, self-protected people,
You presence is not welcomed,
Words, just words to protect us,
From what's out there,
What will harm us,
What will defy us,
He says that he is saving us,
They say we are giving up our rights,
It doesn't cover the fact that we can't afford the bill,
On both sides,

When does "got there" becomes "too far",
When fear becomes a stronger tool than common sense,
When a story with holes becomes just as non-fictional as a fictional "Harry Potter" novel,
Fear is a feeling,
And like every other feeling, you act to it,
But through time, you learn to control it, harness it,
Use your head, and make a decision of it,
You don't put your hand on a campfire, get mad and then, spit at it,
You learn why it happen, experience,
What is the correct thing to , a positive reation,
With some common thinking, common sense,

Where is our common sense?,
Probably hidden within the blinds of our stubborness,
And with this trait, fear thrives,
With no sense, ignorance grows,
These are you enemies, Know them,

"Too far" is fundamental thing as well,
When did prayer become violent?,
It didn't, the performer did,
Where does it say in your sacred text,
That the only way for a message to be sent,
Is through sacrifice of yourself and others?,
I know what you will say,
"It's easy for you to say, you're an American",
You don't know anything about death,
And I will say unto you, "Raise your blinders",
"Cops" is not a great show because nothing happens,
The Salem witch hunt was real,
Slavery was real, and in some countries does exist,
But through all of this, we try to find peace,
It's human, it's natural, the final cycle of our evolution,
We just gotta give up our training wheels,

"Got there" is where the journey must end, where acknowledgment and evaluation must begin,
"Too far" is seeking the journey in a forest,
Further than what it is really worth, which makes you lost and finally,
Mentally caged in your own wrongful rationalizations,

Common sense is not a class to go to,
Common sense is your ability to think, for yourself,

The dancer moves without a trace,
