The Wheel on the Runaway Train
It is the story; it is the crux of the creation myth,
A simple beauty absent of all pretense and pith, The marriage of the mind and the motion,
And the reaching for the apple was just an impulsive notion.
It started with a good idea to ease the burden on our back,
But now it's on the train and the train is on the track,
And the doctor can not heal you if he is insane, Started out with the wheel and ended up on a runaway train.
Now where is nowhere going so fast,
The future is just some fiend from your shady past,
Doom is not the destination just some perpetual discontent,
But this landlord pays the rent,
Down at the Olympus museum the unknown is on display,
If you're already vested you don't even have to pay,
You can sit and have lunch and watch the train roll by,
Wonder how fast it's going; wonder how fast is why.

It started with a good idea to increase the mileage of our mind,
We used it to travel down that road didn't know what we'd find,
Now were numb and we can't figure out how to describe the pain,
Started out with the wheel and ended up on a runaway train.
Past this artless architecture like a blur,
With all the humility and the arrogance of fake fur, The muscle in the soul and the faint stench of worth,
Mother in heat sloshing thru the afterbirth, Nature's tongue probing nature's toothache, Sacred city to build; abandon and forsake,
The essence of empty; the something of more, Thru pastures of May; electric Babylon whore, Modern man with his stone age passion, Computer animated designers command the latest fashion,
Soul of the circuit board fuels the mind of the wheel,
Till what's false in design is all that seems real.
We'll get our mercy tied to the tracks,
Building our myth from these born again facts, The luxury of ease is now the burden on our backs.
