lyrics

We’re just delusional fools
Living by delusional rules
Wondering why we can’t get
Where we’re going

Living unusual lives
Surrounded by guns and by knives
And we all wonder
Just why there is bloodshed

We’re just delusional fools
Hungry for money and jewels
Yet we can’t eat them
And now we are starving

Famished and skewed from belief
Tarnished and tainted from grief
For lives that we don’t know
We even are mourning

We’re just delusional fools
Learning in lunatic schools
Teaching you all about
Much about nothing

We didn’t learn how to hate
Until they made everything great
Which really is a word
That is so overrated

We’re just delusional fools
Frightened by strangers and ghouls
Ignorant of things we
Just don’t know about of

Nothing that we ever learn
Can undo the pain we have spurned
Upon our world
And all of its people

We're just delusional fools
Living by delusional rules
Wondering why, don't know why
Wondering why, don't know why
Wondering why, don't know why

We’re just delusional fools
Tricked by a prick in a duel
Like a man in a suit
Walking 'round with a sleeping bag

Buying a bone for three score
Then turning and begging for more
Jet-lagged and burning apart
At the seams

We’re just delusional fools
Whining out samples of stools
And wondering why
Nobody will listen

We just ramble and rhyme
Out some false made up lines
Alternative facts
That we just wish were true

We’re just delusional fools
Star-struck and covered in drool
Falling in love
With the child of the sun

It’s some societal ruse
Meant to make us pick and choose
Flustering why we can’t
Conform to the construct

We’re just delusional fools
Convinced into thinking we’re cool
Running about in
Some big commotion

Dismissing all science and fact
As soon as we get to act
So why don’t we all
Just fall in the ocean

We're just delusional fools
Living by delusional rules
Wondering why, don't know why
Wondering why, don't know why
Wondering why, don't know why
Wondering why, don't know why
Wondering why we can't get where we're going
