monkeys on a spinning sphere (Remix)

You've been lost in your own little dream Making choices that are never what they seem Today's quick fix leads to tomorrow's regret Playing now, but the price doubles, don't forget Later's got a way of sneaking up on you But today's all that matters, that's the truth "Buy now, pay later" would be your life motto If only you'd stopped to see the big picture [Chorus] Long ago on that spinning sphere Monkeys dreamed up stories to dispel their fear Tales of creators spun into reality Growing into rules that tied us in captivity Forgotten dreams wielding power and might Silencing others with a different sight Maybe I've been thinking way too deep Life's not as complex as it seems to be Seven days, heavens, and hells collide Who's to say the rules haven’t lied? Does life have a purpose, or is it jest? Laughing hard at the finish with all the rest? Let me introduce the ones who claim To know the answers to life's great game They demand your faith with fervent shout But could they be wrong? We’ve reason to doubt Challenging their tales could change the course Instead of war, we’d unite as a force [Chorus] [x2] Long ago on that spinning sphere Monkeys dreamed up stories to dispel their fear Tales of creators spun into reality Growing into rules that tied us in captivity Forgotten dreams wielding power and might Silencing others with a different sight [outro] Imagine a world without blind belief Endless quests for truth, no deceit Possibilities open, no single path Embracing the unknown, free at last Our purpose might be hidden away But life's worth living, come what may
