Land of Confusion - Genesis

Musical Writing Inspiration - Dystopian style

I must’ve dreamed a thousand dreams

Been haunted by a million creams

But I can hear the marching feet

They’re moving into the street

Now did you read news today

They say the dangers gone away

But I can see the fires still alight

There burning into the night

There’s too many men, too many people

Making too many problems

And not much love to go around

Can’t you see this is a land of confusion

Well this is the world we’re live in

And these are the hands were given

Use them and let’s start trying

To make it a place worth living in

Ooh, Superman where are you now

When everythings gone wrong somehow

The men of steel, the men of power

Are losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place

So we look for the future

But there’s not much love to go around

Tell me why, this is a land of confusion

This is the world we live in

And these are the hands we’re given

Use them and let’s start trying

To make it a place worth lining in

I remember long ago when the sun was shining

Yes, and the stars were bright all through the night

And the sound of your laughter as

I held you tight, so long ago

I won’t be coming home tonight

My generation will put it right

We’re not just making promises

That we know, we’ll never keep

Too many men, there’s too many people

Making too many problems

And not much love to go round

Cant you see, this is a land of confusion

Now, this is the world we live in

And these are the hands we’re given

Use them and let’s start trying

To make it a place worth lining in

This is the world we live in

And these are the hands we’re given

Stand up and let’s start showing

Just where our lives are going to

Ok now get back to writing... love and Phil and the guys!
