Declining Civilization

The names we have are meaningless

The things we say are emotionless

The actions we make are pointless

The lives we live serve no purpose

Labeled from our birth

Made to fit the mold

Eyes sewn shut we're ostracized

All freedoms sold

Declining civiliazation

Condescending to primitive beasts

**** another innocent victim

Use the body for our feast

We're all performers

On the devils stage

After the final curtain call

We're thrown back into a cage

Is this what it means to be free?

We're drowning in this cesspool

Called democracy
