Small Victories

Just how much of this will you allow

To go on

What will it take you to realize you're wrong

Oh, so wrong

He fought with him, he fought with her

Who denied her knowledge of what those altercations were

All the lies, and the size, this was not so reassuring

But all is well and all is merry

Even when the times are scary

Every generation is the same

Resulting in this fear illusion

Is a void that creates confusion

Leading to a population tame

I understand demand

And know there's no guarantees

But we've been built a world

That's full of small victories

I've been waiting for a light to shine my way

Every day

No one understands a word of what I say

Go away

I rule the sun and other stars

Say the sons and daughters

Whose parents bought them getaway cars

To ignore inner wall that is building up inside them

From the mountains to the prairie

Everything is looking scary

But the lot around me feel no pain

They live their days in mass delusion

While I coddle my seclusion

Knowing that there all laughing at Shane

I understand demand

And know there are no guarantees

But we've been built a  land

That's full of small victories
