Tr-i - Temporary Sanity lyrics

I had such great expectations of the world's benevolence Of benevolence I prefer hallucinations 'cause they tend to make more sense Than experience But it was just another sneak attack of temporary sanity It was a pleasant stay, but now i'm back from temporary sanity My temporary sanity I began to grow dependent on a thing called common sense It was common sense But my world grew too resplendent that the strain was too intense Without self-defense The pool spreads 'cross the pavement where the sniper made him lie And he looks just like my youngest, and i'm watching him die I must remind myself i've seen this, it's all ancient history One long trail of twisted bodies as the strong crush the weak We must be crazy, we are crazy, this is our natural state As our children die around us, we just sit here and wait For a little temporary sanity Some temporary sanity There's a chance that we would still get the picture If reality just came up and bit ya But the news team would never report it Because there's too much evidence to support it If we was stupider the problem would vanish But our brains are much more than we can manage We say we want something so bad we can taste it But once we get it, then we turn 'round and waste it We got a twisted fixation with the marketplace And every sufferin' soul is just another face We think we're bein' manipulated from outer space It's the collective guilty conscience of the human race We get joyful when we look upon a lesser man A specimen we can be sure that we're better than There is no shortage of supply of pride and vanity There is no explanation but insanity You're listening to prozac while the message goes unheard It's the final word We must be crazy, we must be crazy There's no explanation so we must be crazy
