The Mystery Of Today
Right Under Our Nose
A series of uncontrollable events
We believe and are told are real
Most people go through the motion
Our future is far away
A constant daily reminder of death
We eat , work, relax, sleep
Our dreams are hidden
Secrets that we sometimes tell
Our ideas are thoughts drifting freely
They are mixed whims of fantasy and touches of the bizarre
Daily conversations of the weather and other peoples sadness in the news
Sports action keeps us preoccupied
With daily scores of players and teams
Fancy car ads and the latest trends and stories
Television consumes are time
Faster than a match burns paper
Money hype and the lure of riches
In lotteries and casinos
When we are home we have daily chores and family obligations
Health concern issues are pushed by the media for all kinds of prescription drugs
With medical science breakthroughs
We should be the healthiest ever
Prisions are over crowded and crime is on the rise
When will people learn to help ome another
Instead of fighting against each other
It's never too late
To make this world great
