Koyaanisqatsi
Watch the world through rear-view
Gravity is more convincing than moving in the right direction
Routine auto-pilot hypnotized by the industrial complex
No one knows where we’re going in the name of progress
Vampires in fast cars
Vampires in red cars
Hindsight is 20/20
Come into focus just as it passes
If the past is what just happened
Then what is the present
Vampires with fast cars
Vampires with red cars hooked on speed and blood

You know, like the movie. It’s a Hopi word that means “life out of balance.” Nowadays, we call it capitalism.
