Analysis of Living In A Dream

Tony Kruska 1988 (New York)



Endangered human species on polluted planet earth
Changes will come fast we have to fight for what it's worth
A crippled atmosphere, the deadly toxins that we breath
People plagued with fear not something we wish to believe
The gears just keep on turning, oh that heartless, cold machine
It only cares about you if you're living in a dream
