Song Description

This song is about main stream media being controlled by hidden powers and hiding/withholding the truth; they only provide us with the information they want us to have with a left and a right polarization agenda keeping us from uniting.

Lyrics

A Bigger Picture - James Morris Pearson - Copyright 2010

Verse
TWO DIMENSIONS ON A PAGE,
THREE ON ANY STAGE
MORE EXIST IN EVERY LIFE,
BUT NONE AT ALL ARE SEEN WITHOUT THE LIGHT.

Verse
TWO MEN STANDING IN A CAGE,
PREPARING FOR THE NIGHT
NO ONE COMES AND NO ONE PAYS,
UNLESS A THIRD PROMOTES THE FIGHT.

Pre
ACTORS SAY THE LINES, SLANTED AND DESIGNED TO MISLEAD.
DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER AS WE WATCH THE ANSWERS SCATTER LIKE THE LEAVES.

Chorus
THERE'S A BIGGER PICTURE THAN THE ONE THEY LET US SEE,
READING THEIR PAPERS OR WATCHING THEIR TV.
WHO PROFITS FROM THE PAIN WHEN THE LIES SUCCEED,
DO THEY OWN THE PAGES WE SO PROUDLY READ?

Verse
LIERS SAY "IT TAKES TWO",
HISTORY KNOWS THAT'S NOT TRUE
EVERY AGE HAS ITS PUPPETEERS,
WHO SPREAD THE LIES, CREATING FEARS,
SHADOWS FALL DARK AS NIGHT, HIDING ALL THEIR FACES.

Verse
THEY PULL THE STRINGS LEFT AND RIGHT,
THEY KEEP THE ANSWERS OUT OF SIGHT.
THEY KNOW WE WON'T EVER UNITE UNLESS WE REALIZE...

Pre
WHO KIDNAPS THE TRUTH AND HOLDS HER IN THE DARK?
WHO WORKS SO HARD TO KEEP US ALL APART?

Chorus
THERE'S A BIGGER PICTURE THAN THE ONE THEY LET US SEE,
READING THEIR PAPERS OR WATCHING THEIR TV.
WHO PROFITS FROM THE PAIN WHEN THE LIES SUCCEED,
DO THEY OWN THE PAGES WE SO PROUDLY READ?

Verse
CANYONS GROW DARK AND WIDE,
WE WATCH THE PUPPETS RUN AND HIDE
INTO THE LIGHTS ON EITHER SIDE
THAT THE PUPPETEERS PROVIDE.
WE WATCH THE SHOW BUT DON'T REALIZE
WE'VE BECOME THE POLARIZED
AND TURNED OUR BACKS ON THOSE WE LEFT BEHIND ON THE OTHER SIDE
