Captivity

There is chaos all around
No solace can be found
It's a nightmare we're living
In a world so unforgiving
It's unbelievable how deep
Into our suffering we seep
When we see the global stress
Read confusion in the press
We are guided by our fear
Straight into danger we stear
Our minds collectively drained
Nothing important is gained
By driving round in these loops
Jumping through all the hoops
It's numbing our essense
Dimming our pressence
We need to be reminded
In illusion we are blinded
But there is a way out
Of this panic and doubt
We can't fix it all
Can't break every fall
But we can start small
Gradually build up tall
Reaching out our roots
Sprouting out our shoots
Encouraging a new way
To live together each day
We must try hard to ignore
The things we don't stand for
The thing's we know are wrong
Don't fill our heart with song
We can't ignore the pain
Injustices we can't explain
We could try start to forgive
Find a harmonious way to live
In a world full of brutality
Where anxiety is our reality
Can we try start to relate
To eachother without hate
Open the door to positivity
Escape from our captivity
