Silence to the voice of reason

by HollywoodSmile   Mar 31, 2007


Rage slaughtered the voice of reason
we sit planning revenge
we lie low
to avoid the blame for the lies we've already told

love slaughtered the voice of reason
and filled our heads with false hopes
we dream of things that don't exist
while reality leaves without us

trust slaughtered the voice of reason
training us to believe what we're told
to complete the goals of others
to be like them

reason slaughtered the voice within itself
fighting itself to control our weak minds
to dictate the third dimension
to declare its greatness when it has no right

pain resurrected the voice of reason
reminded us of the good and the bad
brought us back down to earth
restrained us from losing ourselves in a naive world of optimism

where is the voice of reason now?
