Our Eyes

Our eyes got our hearts burden with the winds
The burning of our souls,
Materialism is making us work hard for the sea of gold
   which has no end
Humanity is just as frail as it is pale,
He scratched his steel
   and discovered it was tin
The truth has no place in this world of lies
If we aren't going to believe the reality we see...
why do we need eyes? Who going to hear our cries
   in this world of make-believe and pretend?
