Off Switch
wanna guess
my empty distress
inside I'm a mess
this **** I detest
crack open a book
hey degenerate, take a look
flip a page
the world's a stage
blind, ignorant rage
our youth's worth minimum wage
living cheque to cheque, dollar to dollar
most of god's children grow up in squalor
the blood, the gore can't you see
it becomes ones destiny
no peace on earth, death, war and greed
ignorance dug the garden, hatred planted the seed
turned a blind eye for far too long
I became weak when I ignored the wrong
