lyrics

The human soul is a force of nature to be reckoned with,
ever since the ever-present presence of the pestilence.
The problem is we ignore the problems we're presented with,
and nobody ever takes a thing you say the way you intended it.
So, so cold. I don't know where the effervescence is
but finding it is something everyone should be invested in.
Everything about our species is a disgrace
to the planet we inhabit and it's never gonna change.
The only hope for saving home is the people that destroy it
and when you present them with the facts they flush them down the toilet,
or throw them in the garbage can with their money and their morals.
Nowadays nobody's wrong and everyone's immortal.
Gluttony and greed overrun the population.
We could have a better life but nobody has the patience
to try to build with broken bricks. They'd rather close a fist.
We're in a state of disarray and damn I hope it quits.

(Hook)

Random acts of violence fueled by racism and tyrants.
The media corrupted us. It's time to break the silence.
Be the David to Goliath. There's no need to fear the giant.
Nobody knows their rights but everybody wants to riot.
What a wasteful way of living. I don’t even want to try it.
Having faith is fine with me but some believe in science,
and if I was a higher power, I wouldn't want you to waste your time
worshipping me, I'd rather you be out proving why you're divine.
Hypocrisy has often made a mockery of prophecies.
Instead of getting caught up in it I'm just living consciously.
Fallen and I'm rotten from the constant animosity.
Anomalous autonomy but I feel I'm where I oughta be.
Generosity's forgotten, not a common quality.
Surrounded by monotony and living irresponsibly.
Until I'm dead and gone and rotten in a coffin modestly,
I'm hoping to see the day when honesty is not an oddity.
