The world is our garden
We live where we choose.
We do what we are bidden
Why do we take their abuse.

They take away our individuality
Taking our humanity.
Shaping us with their conformity
Taking our insanity.

We've lost ourselves
We no longer know who we are.
We've lost ourselves
We no longer know what we are.
