Absent Minded
The world as god versus me
me versus the world
i just didnt know
you had secret shows where you decided this and that about my life
what my next challenge was going to be
what job i was going to be hired for or not
as the voters call in
and her i am wanting alover
i describe and the game begins so the world picks one for me
here i am center stage world
me
and you are god
and you steer me through this hell and that hell
to fix this and that for yoursleves so i can feel like ahero in the end
thank you anyway
but the toy i am sees through what you are doing
and i hope you understand
i do the things i do
because its me versus all of you
a crime
a crime
it was not one judge that decided my punishment
but the great and secret show of millions of viewers
thousands of writers
and millionaires that hiored hundreds of actors
so where to now?
what part of society world
my god have we yet to define?
how else can i victimise myself
and when will i be forgiven
I plan to fail you see
so you can get the credit
i did nothing but suffer
you did all the work
as i whined and cried and complained and protested
but you did your best not to listen to me
i know i wouldnt want my power taken away
me versus the world
and here we are playing the same game
as you write another chapter of my life
and im sure you be hired psychics
to find out where i would run to if i did run
and like it matters
being on sattleite anyway
the television talks to me
and the radio sings my adventures you all pretend not to know
a piece of fame you would all die for
but surely you know
you would never trade my place for you know what you know
and ignorance is bliss
back to the meeting of my life im not invited to
it doesnt concern me
just keep singing your death threats and going to your ridiculous wars over me in the middle
just keep debating over wether or not what you are doing is right or spiritual
as you watch my fall to the floor and cry unabashadly
you wnated to play god
and so you are
teaching your children to be just like you
the politicians arent going to change the system
no
theyre going to change one life
mine
and that changes yours
for they steer me
into this plan or that plan
which you all call into the secret show and vote for
and then either watch along and see me squirm
so here ive gone from the different types of abuse
through the system into poverty
protested the whole way
as you write my next chapter
and you have big plans for the man in the middle who can change everything
that you manipulate
your personal jesus
that you buy and trade and sell
sing to
mock
and test
and who reaps the rewards my humbled god
my world versus me
cause its usually not me
im paranoid and delusional
made to think im something im not
confused and abused
self inflicted denial and hate
planning to fail so you can feel better in the end
and i still dont kno wwhy im soo lucky
to wish soo many wishes
and the genie you are is soo selfish to workl on my nightmares
offer me dreams come true but never grant them
me versus the world
keep playing this game
and the king of hell i'll turn to be
willshow you an incredible power i will claim to have over you
with no iron rod
i will rise
and i will succed
i am no fool
i just didnt know
you had secret shows where you decided this and that about my life
what my next challenge was going to be
what job i was going to be hired for or not
as the voters call in
