Plastic Man

Walking through this forest within my mind
It dissipates before my eyes
Buried under endless pavement and concrete walls
And other symbols of our rise

I stare outside my window the seasons change
I cannot live here anymore
And crowds of people moving from side to side
Like the waves upon the shore

Plastic man will save the day now
Fractured to the core, burned by bloody war
There must be something we can do now
To bring down this charade and ruin this fools parade
The legacy we’re leaving for our children is who we are

Seven decades later it all runs dry
Where are you now my fair son
When all my generation is dead and gone
And you got nowhere left to run

Plastic man will save the day now
Fractured to the core, burned by bloody war
We could never be an island
Tossed around in space, trying to save our face
The legacy we’re leaving for our children is who we are

Plastic man will save the day now
Fractured to the core, burned by bloody war
There must be something we can do now
To quell our avarice, over the abyss
The legacy we’re leaving for our children is who we are
