Kyoto Now

It's a matter of prescience 

No, not the science fiction kind 

It's all about ignorance, 

And greed, and miracles for the blind 

The media parading, disjointed politics 

Founded on petrochemical plunder 

And we're it's hostages 



If you stand to reason 

You're in the game 

The rules might be elusive 

But our pieces are the same 

And you know if one goes down we all go down as well 

The balance is precarious as anyone can tell 

This world's going to hell 



Don't allow 

This mythologic hopeful monster to exact it's price 

Kyoto now! 

We can't do nothing and I think someone else will make it right 



You might not think it matters now 

But what if you are wrong 

You might not think there's any wisdom in a fucked up punk rock song 

But the way it is 

Cannot persist for long 

A brutal sun is rising on a sick horizon 



It's in the way 

We live our lives 

Exactly like the double-edge of a cold familiar knife 

And supremacy weighs heavy on the day 

It's never really what you own but what you threw away 

And how much did you pay? 



In your dreams 

You saw a steady state a bounty for eternity 

Silent screams 

But now the wisdom that sustains us is in full retreat 

Don't allow 

This mythologic hopeful monster isn't worth the risk 

Kyoto now! 

We can't have vision for the future if it can't be fixed 

Alien 

We need a fresh and new religion to run our lives 

Hand in hand 

The arid torpor of inaction will be our demise 



Oh, Kyoto now!
