Dominici - The Plan lyrics

rate me

I went with great reluctance<br />

To meet with the strange man<br />

He promised to reveal to me<br />

A visionary plan<br />

Where all the worlds injustice<br />

And unfair cruelty<br />

Would all at once be wiped away<br />

What martyrs we would be<br />

<br />

The building with the pillars<br />

That housed the books of old<br />

Would teach me of the chemistry<br />

And tools that I must hold<br />

A simple drop of water<br />

The liquid gift of life<br />

When altered with a genius spark<br />

Will then cut like a knife<br />

<br />

The formula was simple<br />

The plan a noble one<br />

But when I studied further<br />

I found a smoking gun<br />

This was no simple terror act<br />

Not like the ones we'd seen<br />

The horror in this formula<br />

No one could even dream<br />

<br />

An unleashed chain reaction<br />

Would change all oxygen<br />

And all that does contain it<br />

Into O3 poison.<br />

The air would be like fire<br />

The water like a fuel<br />

The world would choke and sputter<br />

With no one left to rule<br />

<br />

I'm sure that they can't know this<br />

It cannot be their plan<br />

There must be some mistake here<br />

I have to find that man<br />

But when I ran to catch him<br />

To tell of what I'd found<br />

A stranger barked, "Stop! F.B.I!"<br />

And threw me to the ground<br />

<br />

I awoke in darkness<br />

My head was wracked with pain<br />

But the case had been mishandled<br />

And I was on the street again<br />

So I ran home to my woman<br />

To ask what should I do<br />

She also turned against me<br />

She thinks I'm evil too<br />

It seems the man had been there<br />

And asked where I might be<br />

He thinks I turned against him<br />

He saw them arrest me<br />

I'm feeling so alone now<br />

The urge to run and hide<br />

And all this primal anger<br />

Now festers deep inside<br />

<br />

My family is doomed now<br />

As far as I can tell<br />

The new life I have come to love<br />

About to end as well<br />

What's left now is this question<br />

I'm forced to wonder why... <br />

Why should I let the whole world live?<br />

When I myself must die.
