Io

Io Lyrics

Sitting on the beach . looking at the nightsky
I've seen the news today . where will it finally end
Do I really have to follow . follow them on their self-destructive path
There is a compulsion . that makes me do things
I don't want to do . and this conflict
With it's contradictory poles . rules my life
Back and forth . right and wrong
Forced to something . far too long
Break out . back and forth
Right and wrong . far too long
A moon of the 5th . as a symbol for human kind
Glowing by the presence of two . the wonder of love reduced
To a function of hormones . the wonder of life reduced
To a reaction of instincts . the wonder of belief misused
For power for power . the blindness of both
As an answer to the . separation of one
Science in it's contempt . religion in it's selfishness
The origin of both . neglected of both
Why should someone who sees follow the blind ones
