lyrics

Vaclav Smil (Author of “Global Catastrophes and Trends”):
“I’m inoculated against any doctrinaire ground solutions that say, you know, 'This is the pattern. This is the master. This is the paradigm which we have to follow.’ I’m just totally set against it. So, I’m making things deliberately kind of, you know, messy, incoherent, uncoordinated because that’s how life is! We don’t know what patterns will emerge.”

I found a way to survive.
Idle hands won’t get you by.
Need a reason, to stand and fight.
We all crave this meaning in our life.

Need a purpose as your cosmic guide
To get you through your darkest times
Find a reason, to rise and shine.
We all need some meaning in our lives.

Shut out the world tonight
And ripple out in creation.
Drive it towards the very source
Of our mutual connection.
Take away the masks and names,
Material things, social games,
No delusion, no desires,
WE’RE ALL TRYING TO SURVIVE.

To think, to know, to realize
To dare, to prosper and feel alive…
To learn, to grow, to synthesize.
To find one another and stay alive…

Think and feel, you’re not alone
In devastation. (Devestation.)
We’re all going to a war.
(We’re all going through a war.)

Is this all we had to do?
Trade our comfort in for truth?
We’re alive, all is well.
We'll make heaven of this hell.
