The Missing Links - Wisdom In Chains

The hard truth is better than a comfortable lie so

Who are we really, I’m feeling so deprived

Give me the answers I’ve always tried to find

Through books written way before my time

Those tales of men who were so wise

Manipulating a truth so well disguised

Those tales of life after the tides wiped it all away

Mistakes they tried to hide

Who were we before Eve gave us life

And who is Adam, an experiment, a guise?

Who am I, an experiment, a lie

I feel we’re all blind to the truth but where does it lie?

It’s all written but we won’t look or listen

There’s too much pain in the truth, in that wisdom

We’re all links in a chain, but something’s missing

Maybe the answer’s in a place not so distant

Where do we come from, that’s the plight of humankind

Are those ancient ruins a reference, a time line?

Did they come to ruin us or help define

What we would ultimately become in due time

If those stories of gods enslaving minds

Holds any weight then I’ve defied my kind

There’s no glory in tainting human life

But I’m no follower so I still search to find

Some sign that there’s more to this life

The folklore and religions that divide

It’s all true or it’s all a fucking lie

It’s all proof none of us know where our souls reside

It’s all written but we won’t look or listen

There’s too much pain in the truth, in that wisdom

We’re all links in a chain, but something’s missing

Maybe the answer’s in a place not so distant
