Regress

We cling to the names
The labels that we display
But when it all comes down to it
They mean nothing
This modern way of living is so fucked up
We victimize the culprit and condemn the innocent
Condemn the innocent
Nothing we read is true
Only a product of this backwards system
When it all comes to an end
It’ll be the source of its own demise
Hate outnumbers love
Money outnumbers all

Neglect

Lives lost are seemingly not enough to make you care
Will you see the forest for the trees?
The cries have gone unheard
Mistaken steps and wasted breaths
I refuse to believe that you fail to see what’s gone so wrong with your society
Ask yourself: are human lives a commodity?
Atrocity as a status quo is conducive to instability
Look around: what do you see?
Suffering is palpable you choose to look away
You fail your sons and daughters every fucking day
Old man, take a look at your life
Take a step back, take a look around
Old man, can you look me in the eyes
Tell me you don’t give a fuck if they swim or drown
Find a fucking answer and you will see
The addicts in the streets you can’t bear to watch
Flourishing in love and prosperity
I don’t know the answer
But I know for sure
Neglect is not the answer
And death is not a cure
I don’t know the answer
Find a fucking answer

Repress

Can’t repress
Can’t escape
No release
Pure disgrace
Nothing left
No way out
Shatter my sanity
Leave me here to suffer
Nobody left, nobody here to save me
Thought you were my brother
Turning your back just to save face
I know I am the ugly shell of who I was
Turn your back for the last time
Fade out into the back of my mind
On my own
Left for dead
Private hell
In my head
Accept my fate
What's to come
Drowning in misery
I know I'm a burden
I know it's a chore
But I expected so much more
From my best friends, my next of kin
Partners in crime in this life of sin
The tides have turned, the times have changed
The gavel swung, decisions made
Cutting ties with all I know
How could you let me get so low?
How could you let me get so low?
Try and tell me you didn't know
Hang my head and watch me go
Cutting ties with all I know
Leave me here to suffer
Leave me here to suffer
Leave me here to suffer
Leave me here to suffer
Think
Feel
Suffer

Extinction

Put your best foot forward
Put love into the world
Do your best to get by
Survival of a dying breed
Human kind will survive
If we learn to get by
Love yourself, love each other
Take care of one another
We need to step forward
Put love into the world
Help your kin to get by
To survive this trying time
Put your best foot forward
Don't look back, don't waste your breath
If we put our minds together we can save the world
Extinction imminent
Save our souls
Extinction imminent
Save us
