Tiny Men

lyrics

Sanity slowly cracking
Vanity Hacking our minds down to the toes
Anxiety misleads learning
Society turning to reality shows

Ones and zeroes stacking
tracking and tracing and trapping your thoughts
Villains and heroes quacking
Occupying your feeds for likes and votes

I see us tiny tiny tiny men
Burying ourselves in the screens around the world
Hoarding masks and papers like we’ve gone insane
Reading just the headlines and acting absurd
We’re just tiny tiny tiny men

Beauties forced kneeling
Purity cherished then trashed when it's gone
Bullies never yielding
Hopes of youths seem crashed and/or pawned

Quarrels through the ceiling
Pushing him to walk out, weapons drawn
The wounded barely healing
Bodies keep on piling till dawn

I see the tiny tiny tiny men
Writing checks and bills to build these walls
With their tiny tiny tiny hands
Playing games with lives and scratching their balls
We see the tiny tiny tiny men
Taking rights and homes away from the poor
With their tiny tiny tiny minds
Locked up in a cave behind the closed door
We see they're tiny tiny tiny men
