Imagine A Man
Imagine a man, not a child of any revoltBut a plain man tied up in lifeImagine the sand running out as he strutsParading and fading, ignoring his wife
Imagine a road, so long looking backwardsYou can't see where it really beganImagine a load, so large and so smoothThat against it a man is an ant
And you will see the endYou will see the end
Imagine events that occur everydayLike a shooting or raping or a simple act of deceitImagine a fence around you as high as preventionCasting shadows, you can't see your feet
Imagine a girl, you long for and haveAnd the body of chalky perfection and truthImagine a past, that you wish you had livedFull of heroes and villains and fools
And you will see the endYou will see the endAnd you will see the endYou will see the end, oh yeah
Imagine a man, not a child of any revoltBut a man of today feeling newImagine a soul so old, it is brokenAnd you will know your invention is you
And you will see the endYou will see the endYou will see the endYou will see the end, oh yeah
