From Our Hands

we were starved for hopes and dreams
so we came up with science
even more

had not we seen the things we had
would it have changed our present?
do we know?

don't you don't lie to me
we're far from knowing it all
don't you don't lie to me

you made up the laws for everyone
that draw my attention
you said, it's right for you
so, why is it killing us?
We made up the laws for everyone
so far from perception
we are the same for you
but we're individuals

would it change the way i feel
if i could see the colors?
all-around
would it've taken so many years
with only eight fingers on which to count?

we build up the cages
we build up the cages
and we swallow what they think
and we swallow what they think

we build up the cages
we build up the cages
we are the rats, our wheels are spinning

we are all in the gutter
we are all in the gutter
