Kudo - Cat's Cradle Lyrics

Once upon a time
There was a young man
Who put forth himself
To do something grand
He had a good chance
But ambition turned hate
And drove him insane
And sent him to the grave

Years of ponder
Fears of yonder
A Culmination
Of Sovereign aspiration

To consummate
His glorious ambition
He must save the whole fucking world

They were running in the streets
With guns in their hands
To save themselves
From foreign lands

My friends
Come with me
And we will see
The end of all that's wrong

How much!?

It will be so great
My glorious fate

I'm just a soul in a box
Inquiring without an answer in sight
Our human desires
Lead us to think that there is more than this night

Walkin' down the street
Feelin' it out to see
An old man
What do you want from me?
What do you need from me?
Don't waste time

So you wanna save the world?
Well listen up boy I got a secret to tell you
It's all fine, this great divine, till you
Realize that everything comes with a price and
One little man can not accomplish what I would call vice

I can not even deny
What the man has said
The task I have chosen now
Is all over my head

But what of the other folks
Curse them they do not look beyond their own hoax
Can not they see what I see
Life questions all of us in ability
Why can't they see
To save our selves

Lying on my side
Bleeding for my life

Games
It's all just games
No damn cat nor cradle

Fuck it
I don't see
What's the point of me

Stop
Do not bleed
For reasons you can't see

Life
There's no point
But that's just where it starts

Consider this

Life
Akin to canvas
The mind
Draws regardless
Boxed in
We are clueless
The mind
Draws conclusions

So the point?
There is no point
Just realize
It's your own life
It's your own mind
So make it work for you
so that you can return to the Mrs. that you love

We must abide by the lies
That make us happy and kind and healthy in our lives
We must all take in faith
That maybe, just maybe we'll avoid our own wraith

Once upon a time
There was a young man
Who put forth himself
To do something grand
With unfaithful friends
Who led him astray
He came to his senses
And dug out of his grave
