Just some thoughts on systematic ignorance and how there can be a point where it's too jurastic a change to step out. Not saying that's how it is, just enjoyed the concept to ponder.

I imagine it with short and snappy verses with heavy build-up until after the chorus, then a stark cooldown and repeat.
Plenty of instrumental between the verses, super funky guitar bits.

I'm a troubled man but,
Ent we all?
So have a bit of empathy,
Life is cruel

Would you really wanna live in the real world
If its no better than the fantacies
And lies we build?
...

Would you really wanna give it up give it up?
Would you really wanna give it up?

Live in ignorance the
Would would fall
Don't wanna go on but we're
Responsible

Would you take a pin and burst your bubble
If you're floating in the air
looking down at trouble?
...

Would you really wanna give it up give it up?
Would you really wanna give it up?

Interesting take on the advisability or desirability-ness(?) of living in a fantasy world. What would happen, say, if a person did NOT
take a pin and burst your bubble
If you're floating in the air
looking down at trouble?


Is it really possible to avoid the trouble in the real world? Or maybe, while living in a fantasy, the trouble just doesn't penetrate? Food for thought here...very interesting.

:) Thanks all. I enjoyed the thought and glad it got some of you thinking. Is a good shout Vicki guess the clock is ticking too, and the longer you leave it until bursting the bubble the harder the drop will be

Think it needs some strong music to stand these up though so looking forward to whacking out the electric and going a bit wild.
