Makeshift World It's a nightmare how we live But it's the nightmares we give And our eyes closed tight See only wrong in our right Our trails of our lives Are nothing but lies Our want and need Underly our greed And our world is a riddle Unsolved and lost, little by little (Chorus) In our makeshift world No-one gets a break In our makeshift world You grab what you can take In our makeshift world You let them eat cake In our makeshift world You accept what you forsake Are our lives like a flame? Great until comes the rain All our happiness is dead And we sleep in Death's bed A time when crime seems right Days when it pays to fight An age where rage is fate Stand and disband the hate Written December, 1998
