Progress

Back to Album

I’m not socially committed

I don’t know what to believe

All the people we’ve elected

Have sewn pockets in their sleeves

And the food that we’ve infected

With preservatives and greed

And the cities we’ve erected

Not designed to let you breathe

 

Well so this is the price of progress

Have we come so very far

From the days of horse and buggy

To the days of jets and cars?

In our war with mother nature

Every battle has been won

We’ve flown to the moon

And clouded up the sun

And we’ve just begun

 

I do not know the answers

‘Cause the questions are not clear

And my eyes can see no longer

And my ears can barely hear

And my heartbeat’s growing fainter

With the passing of each year

And I cannot help but wonder

Where do we go from here?

 

I cannot hear

I cannot feel

I cannot see

Breathe free

 

So this is the price of progress

Have we come so very far

From the days of horse and buggy

To the days of jets and cars?

And though everything of value

Must then surely have a cost

I cannot help but wonder

Have we won

More than we’ve lost?
