Turn on the TV Nothing but static Switch to the news Riots and violence Brainwashed with lies Afraid of the new Judging the different Just to be "cool" Side-effects are Outweighing the illness The Federal Government Is keeping secrets Teens shooting guns Children are dead Kids hyped on drugs But "It's all in your head" Pop some more pills Make the pain go away Cut a little deeper No one cares if you stay

Modern Day
Turn on the TV Nothing but static Switch to the news Riots and violence Brainwashed with lies Afraid of the new Judging the different Just to be "cool" Side-effects are Outweighing the illness The Federal Government Is keeping secrets Teens shooting guns Children are dead Kids hyped on drugs But "It's all in your head" Pop some more pills Make the pain go away Cut a little deeper No one cares if you stay
What I see in modern day society.
