|
There are those who think that life has nothing left to chance |
|
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance |
|
A planet of play things |
|
We dance on the strings |
|
Of powers we cannot perceive |
|
'The stars aren't aligned |
|
Or the gods are malign...' |
|
Blame is better to give than receive |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice |
|
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice |
|
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill |
|
I will choose a path that's clear |
|
I will choose freewill |
|
There are those who think |
|
That they were dealt a losing hand |
|
The cards were stacked against them |
|
They weren't born in Lotusland |
|
All preordained |
|
A prisoner in chains |
|
A victim of venomous fate |
|
Kicked in the face |
|
You can't pray for a place |
|
In heaven's unearthly estate |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Each of us |
|
A cell of awareness |
|
Imperfect and incomplete |
|
Genetic blends |
|
With uncertain ends |
|
On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet |
