"Decline" lyrics
It's easy to say we scream for change when everyday we act the same
How can a troubled government make us scapegoats
When we don't go out and vote
We're spewing, spouting, condemnation
That the world we live in is a racist nation
Since our opinions contradict our statements
We show our prejudiced affiliations
Decline of civilization
A crime against humanity
In all our lies and our self pity
It's time to stop our apathy
You say you're a victim in pain
But you always prey one someone to blame
You want to end the suffering for the hungry and the poor
When they ask for help you slam the door
You want housing for the public good
But not in your own neighborhood
Industrial pollution makes you sick
But you ain't got time for politics
You want the world to be a better place
For your children, your people, your friends or race
But selfish reasons drive us all, it's all for one and none for all
Hypocrisy is man's demise
How can a troubled government make us scapegoats
When we don't go out and vote
We're spewing, spouting, condemnation
That the world we live in is a racist nation
Since our opinions contradict our statements
We show our prejudiced affiliations
Decline of civilization
A crime against humanity
In all our lies and our self pity
It's time to stop our apathy
You say you're a victim in pain
But you always prey one someone to blame
You want to end the suffering for the hungry and the poor
When they ask for help you slam the door
You want housing for the public good
But not in your own neighborhood
Industrial pollution makes you sick
But you ain't got time for politics
You want the world to be a better place
For your children, your people, your friends or race
But selfish reasons drive us all, it's all for one and none for all
Hypocrisy is man's demise
