Pure Souls, Poisoned Minds

In this age of no compassion
every man stabs his brother
no room for tolerance
don't you see the signs
we're entering the days of ignorance

no one ever made it through the final test
when death closes our eyes, we're dust just like the rest
we're all born in this situation
where we have to play along in this drama of creation

this world is changing so fast
that my question is, can we turn it back
once so pure, born in perfect harmony
now our culture blurs, cover our eyes
as we live our lives with pure souls but poisoned minds
