Cari Eden Kindl Counting Sheep lyrics

I was born in the sixties but I missed all good drugs
No computers, polyester, plastic and fur rugs
A river of blood from a war that never was.

Chain link fences round a playground hell
Throwing my pennies in a wishing well
And saving all my love for a rainy day

I'm counting sheep but I can't sleep
There's so much going on inside my head
If I had a message for the world
I would tell them all drop everything and run

They are masters of deception. They play the game with cool perfection.
They're only looking down to count their sheep.

Middle aged student with a couple of kids
Trying to figure out what a modem is
Cyber space junky planning all my trips to nowhere

Got a government job and a house on the hill
Working for the man just to pay my bills

Security, benefits, insurance and a Capital view.

I'm counting sheep but I can't sleep
There's so much going on inside my head
Each day I die just a little more A slow death by insignificance
They are masters of deception.
They play the game with cool perfection.
They're only looking down to count their sheep.
We are the children of confusion
We live our lives in a grand illusion
We're only looking down to find our feet

I'm counting sheep but I can't sleep
There's so much going on inside my head
If I had a message to the world I would tell them to drop everything and run
I would tell them to wake up
The sun is shining fill your cup

They are masters of deception. . .We are the children. . .Third eye blinded. . .
