It's a crazy crazy world

It's a crazy crazy world
*
It's life we can't run away from,
the world is becoming very personal
Clouds for the first time are telling
stories and they are very personal too
-
Can we just agree we have no control
over all the changes that befall us!
A kid wants to know why he's born with adult pain, is he to blame for our mistakes?
-
The world is changing and we don't know how it happens, changes come left and right we can't pin point the starting points
We cry for loved ones that are far and close
-
Climate change is upon us and the burning Ozone layer is blamed on civilization
Dark clouds befall us yet we need the industrial revolution and we need clear skies
-
We cry for loved ones in our verses like maidens who are about to marry deceased grooms trapped in the fight against poverty for their families
Men have to work amidst the changing times, the changing dark revolution
-
Dark clouds befall us, we cry everyday
Cries of maidens are heard more daily
Yet if we dig deep the solution isn't hidden
We burning the only Earth that can save us, we know we need more oxygen
-
We need more greenery to survive
But survival is reserved for the fittest
Men die in millions working their sweat off for the few individuals and their families are left with a change and you ask why more maidens are crying everyday
-
Can the fat men on top of the food chain stop draining the blood of the maidens?
How long was the question then and now
And the maidens are still crying looking at young boys that are awaiting same fate 
This is a crazy crazy world!
