REALITY ABUSE (Words & Music by A. Marscher ©2003)
1. We search for a description of reality that fits our macroscopic mentality
Strip the world down to its finest scales, but that where normal logic fails
Electrons with no individuality, photons with wave-particle duality
Entangle in a logical fatality!
Chorus:
I'm so confused! Can't figure out what it means, my mind's abused, logic caught in between
Cause-and-effect has a deep defect, serendipity rules and we're big fools
To think it should make any sense from our side of the size-scale fence
2. The unobserved filled with uncertainty, don't know exact position and velocity
Outcome of measurement like throwing dice: repeat, yet you don't get the same result twice
Determinism yields to probability, can't imagine such unpredictability
Must be some mental inability . . .
[chorus]
Ending:
It's no use . . . it's mind abuse . . . I'm so confused . . .
Universe, what are you doing to my mind?!?
