lyrics

Where does beauty lie? Not in this place.
Bombing and hate and we’re lost in a haze,
There’s no options today so we stop and we blaze.
Kids are brought up with no hope – unconsciously raised.
Other kids are unconscious – shot to the grave,
Where’s out conscience? Or does it not bother our ways?
And as honesty fades…
I realise nothing’s left.
Battlefields, school playgrounds
Blood is shed.
Little girls walk around looking upset.
Following their role models’ footsteps.
So they get a little older and they cook less,
Cause now they wanna weigh much less.
That’s their way to success.
And love’s wrecked nowadays.
Husbands and wives with a frown on their face.
Everything’s back to front and our ground is a waste.
Built with money in mind – no-one’s proud of this space.
A whole life could be saved with one hourly rate.

Now I’m drifting away to a horrible place
Where people are killing themselves just for honouring faith,
And others worship material – modelling makes.
I look around but it seems no-one’s stopping the hate,
We’re locked in our ways – I’m seeing no progress.
My heroes are dead – my inspirations flow less.
Everybody’s depressed. Feeling hopeless.
No-one to turn to.
You can’t trust anyone cause everybody hurts you.
Pursue your dreams – get left disillusioned.
We’re a standstill but yet everybody’s moving,
Crashing into one another – misdirected humans.
It seems life’s a big game – everybody is losing.
Aiming to be proving a point that don’t matter.
I turn on TV – a hundred bodies scattered.
Love is shown through violence – everything is backwards.
I never fell asleep so I can’t wake back up.
