Lyrics

LIMITLESS WORLD
(Music and Lyric by Louis Rosen)

It’s a limitless world
Filled with limitless choice
For the fortunate few
With a privileged voice
While the rest of us toil
And our spirit succumbs
To a soul-killing hunger
As we pick up the crumbs
In this limitless world
This limitless world

It’s a limitless world
Filled with limitless dreams
Where the promise of hope
Inspires limitless schemes
Where anger and fear
May trump all belief
And a well-heeled huckster
Can be Commander-in-Chief
In this limitless world
This limitless world

In this limitless world
Our holy men say
That our limitless gods
Send blessings our way
But our feelings of want
Get confused with need
And our earthly desires
Sow a spoiled seed
In this limitless world
This limitless world

There’s limitless longing
Limitless thirst
Limitless pain when bubbles burst
But limited trust in ties that bind
And limited faith that your own child won’t be
Left behind.

It’s a limitless world
In the U. S. A –
That’s the story we tell
That’s the prayer we pray
But societies change
And societies crack
When the chaos is over
It’s a long road back
In this limitless world
This limitless world
This limitless world
This limitless world
