Hire Perception

I drank so much coffee, I’m wired for sound

Your words rang true in my ears

Despite hearing it for years

It suddenly feels real this time around

It’s funny how hard we continue the search

When it was in front of my face

Without human sin or disgrace

Your message got lost in religion and church

The most important piece in the puzzle is still love

In the black heat of night or on the wings of a dove

Your message was so simple and pure

You alone, our only hope and cure

Please lead us all to hire a higher perception

It starts and ends with you plus nothing at all

We must push out our daily distractions

And give up selfish dissatisfactions

We surely need your mercy after the fall

I once thought I could always do it own my own

But I heard your case over time

And I had to stop on a dime

And think about my account to you on your throne

The most important piece in the puzzle is still love

In the black heat of night or on the wings of a dove

Your message was so simple and pure

You alone, our only hope and cure

Please lead us all to hire a higher perception

Help us, as only you can, to a higher perception
