Tragedies killing disasters like clockwork Maybe I'm just jade but I don't see the beauty anymore And so I mourn for every child born Into this ugly and unforgiving world
We're dropping' bodies droppin' bombs No remorse no restraint at all What's left for the ones who come after us Bloody rubble and a dream coated in dust
How much further do we plan to take it Slash and burn till the planet lies vacant And I've always heard that when it rains it pours If we let the cops pull us over Next they'll bust down our doors
The prisons are loaded the quotas are met We're starving in gutters and drowning in debt The system has faltered there's no help to call for Let's open the toolbox and build something better
CHORUS god I hope we haven't buried ourselves too deep Beneath a mountain of abhorrent ideas and greed And I really wish I had some hope for the future but I'm sorry gotta say I don't (x2)
2053 missiles deployed Soon we'll be shifting through the ashs of a planet destroyed The human race is just a parasitic toxic disease We're paving over forests and we're poisoning the seas
A wasteland what once was pure Decrepit now we've torn the sails A travesty a wasted chance The bridge to growth was built to fail A hourglass is running low Rusted gears begin to slow When this modern daydream does collapse We'll all be begging for the past
