Destination's Calling

Turning Away

Destination's Calling


For too long our hearts 
Have yearned for silent oceans 
You and I we share the same blinded lives 
Story of a silent man's devotion 
Forced to believe in disreputable lies 

Why should we care what's beyond 
When we're safe at last 
This ancient contious gap 
A self contious lack 
Feeds our fear and again 

We are turning away 
From the spiral of fear 
Not one reflection on the screen 
That hasn't yet been seen 
We are turning away 
I'm not afraid to say 
The more we turn we stay 

Day by day this tidal wave draws its way 
Breaks the threshold of our mind 
Our so-called knowledge left behind 
Indifference's the key to a bleached conformity 
So credulous and clear through the mirror 
We stare 

Why should we help those in need 
We are safe at last 
This ancient contious gap 
A self contious lack 
Feeds our fear and again 

We are turning away 
From the spiral of fear 
Not one reflection on the screen 
That hasn't yet been seen 
We are turning away 
I'm not afraid to say 
The more we turn we stay obsolete 
And insecure
