Hate (dream)

from 7 Songs by Sunil K Chopra

/

lyrics

What’s this sorrow about? Why can’t we sort it out?
Why’s the truth getting worse than fiction?
It takes a whole lot of clout and a need to test it out
to place the world in such a bullshit position.

I never dreamed I would lie awake and hate
Lie and wait for a new inquisition
If we are built to destroy ourselves in fear
then why put up with the endless transitions?

Fear is always around, I won’t let it get me down
This world is more than a one supposition
Suppose we’re all just one mistake, deep inside a dream of hate
bound to consume itself since its own conception

I never dreamed I would lie awake and hate
Lie and wish for some new information
If we are made of the thoughts in our heads
why can we not control our obsessions?

There is no reason to believe, to use a myth a sieve,
to call to arms based on weak superstition
if we could lay down our guns and realize we were all one
then we could no longer call ourselves humans

I never dreamed I would lie awake and hate
Lie and wish for an end to volition
If we are made to exist or survive
why must we ask a myth for permission?

If we are built to destroy ourselves in fear
why put up with the endless transitions?
