lemiffe - methane dreams (v3) lyrics

i’ve just come back from the news room, i’ve dire news i’m afraid
the prediction systems we built are all wrong, the weather’s about to get worse
i’ve just come back from the station, the trains are all held back
oh insanity! may we turn back before it’s too late

i’m sorry i’m leaving
must work on a hot-fix
there’s only so much life
i must spend it for good

the problem with humanity is that we can’t be trusted
we are the teachers, we are the drivers, we are the leaders, but we are just people
what is it to be human? what is it to think, to be aware of one’s self?
to realise you are free to move anywhere right now, to leave your home
to slam the door, to break a few plates, to steal a handbag, to maim, to k!ll
it is this freedom along with a lack of good mentorship, good parenting
and a good basic globally-standardised framework
for civic behaviour which scares me
that’s why we can’t be trusted, we can’t be trusted with guns
we can’t be trusted with financial decisions
we can’t be trusted with our lives nor the lives of others
we can’t be trusted with our future
this rabbit hole ends with computers
we need computer overlords, for a while
we need a standardised system of mentorship
until humanity is ready to make big decisions
such as: should we allow guns?
should we allow people to take all these pills?
should we close our borders and set up walls?
walls won’t stop chaos; the chaos is within
the chaos is in each and every one of us
waiting to be stirred up until madness erupts
and some keep it quiet, some drown the fear in wine
some realise their power and choose peace and warmth over fear
but some let it loose, claiming lives, leading to strict laws and more fear
leading to paranoia, leading to a police state, leading to repression
leading to unrest, repeating in endless cycles
and only through good mentorship can we be at peace with ourselves
with our neighbours, with humanity
to a degree where we can be trusted again
stark, but necessary
