We're born with hopeful wonder
We're born with tempestuous emotion
We try not to get pulled under
But get swept up in devotion
We get older and chip away
Rust in the sinking water
Trying to hold onto Maye
Always unwillingly slaughter
We mutate to an object inhumane
Excuse it with "It's in our DNA"
Seems like we're all on *******
Have brain damage more every day
We **** each other left and right
Trying to cope and manage
Wrecked brain and no sight
We create collateral damage
So don't say "I'm only human"
Blaming everything except yourself
I think it's time you tune in
And take the book off the shelf
Your eyes are covered by your own hands
What is it you fear?
It's pathetic and sad
You can't see you are your own puppeteer

Me, a little girl and little words
Always seem to say
These little lines raw and unheard
Will help me get away
Into the labyrinth of my mind
Trapped in its abyss
They all see, but are blind
They all turn and dismiss
We all fake smiles
Living in a monotone world
We all judge, are given trials
Not minding that we're unfurled
We live in endless denial
Thinking everything is fine
I slowly taste the bile
What is wrong with our minds
Being all hypocritical
But never admitting
Always being so analytical
"No, young lady that isn't very fitting"
Saying "Yes, I'll change my ways"
Only to crawl back again
Why this continual craze
We must fix our ways and mend
Cause if we don't, we'll be what we fear
We are in the nightmare, reality
Monsters, killers, death, and tears
We'll be a living dead society
