What’s happened to the human race?
We’ve turned so cold and dark
Instead of reaching out to care
We feed on hate like sharks

But that is just a fraction
Of how we have evolved
Instead of reaching out to care
We don’t get too involved

We shun away from feeling guilt
It doesn’t fit our style
Instead of reaching out to care
We wear a pseudo smile

We offer God as solace
So we don’t have to love
Instead of reaching out to care
We point to up above

No wonder bullets fly
No wonder anger blooms
Instead of reaching out to care
We lock them all in rooms
