Outside children are playing
Looks like a brand new day
And you can hear the droning, buzzing, humming of the airplanes
You look out the car window and realize, “oh, it’s only the scenery that changes.”
It’s like the universe just rearranges
same stuff, just in different cages
But Mother don’t you cry
It’ll be alright
In an instant, we can transcend the pain
In an instant the world can change
Welcome to the technological modern dark ages
The post-apocalyptic paralyzation has only taken to you virtual places
And all the children looking through kaleidoscope eyes
Whose muffled cries can only thankly be heard through the prism
Of medicated sighs
No wonder we’re all so frustrated
A problem can’t be solved from the consciousness it created
But Mother don’t you cry
It’ll be alright
We can transcend the pain
In an instant the world can change
And when the anesthesia wears off
And you start to worry
And you begin to wonder
Just from where you came
Look at mother’s eye
Stars reflected in your eyes
And you will realize it’s true
That beauty, that beauty is you
Well, now you truly have a choice to make
Because make no mistake
The rabbit’s gonna come back and it’s gonna say “take one or take two?”
Choose red or choose blue
What are you gonna do?
Mother don’t you cry
It’ll be alright
We can transcend the pain
In an instance we all can change
In an instance we all can change
