Moment of Truth Lyrics


One day later

The fire chief comes to visit me

He wants to check my health status

And wants to know

When I would return to work

Right before I could answer

He started to tell me the truth

About our job

The here and now

Is not a sesult of the states' doctrine

It was forced by the people itself

It began as consumerism changed

And everyone wanted everything

Things began to have mass

It all started with photography

And the invention of television

Books just appealed to a few people

So the content got reduced

From abstracts to headlines

Simply to have a blowoff

The world moved faster

And it was easier to watch the TV

Classics of literature were shortened to a one-page digest

In a lexicon to make sure that no one is left behind

The ongoing growth of mass media

Seemed to reach more people

The comprehension was easier

Because of the explanations were shallow-brained

Why should anyone learn anything

When it's enough to press a button?

There's no room for profoundness

In these restless days

The here and now

Is not a result of the states' doctrine

It was forced by the people itself

You see there is nothing necessary about books

On their pages you won't find any answers

They'll only confuse you
