"Collapse" lyrics

"Collapse"

Forever betrayed, we stand at the edge
Ourselves are to blame, there's no turning back

We buy into this madness
Waste every resource and remain mindless
We stand and watch the world decay
Living a lie as we're wasting away
There's no measure of control
No concept of what we hold
We've bled our future dry and there's no one else left to blame

In this mindless paradigm
We can only decline
Our future's being sold by the hands of greed
But what is the real cost?

Watch as we all collapse
I tell you that we've lost our way
Under the dying sun
Watch as we all collapse
Watch as we all collapse

Sedated masses swallow headlines over and over again
So consumed in the mundane, there's no way for us to maintain
This vicious cycle is spinning out of control
We're left dead behind the eyes and there's no one else left to blame

In this mindless paradigm
We can only decline
Our future's being sold by the hands of greed
But what is the real cost?

Watch as we all collapse
I tell you that we've lost our way
Under the dying sun
Watch as we all collapse
Under the dying sun
Watch as we all collapse

Staring at the end, a future obsolete
We're only living to consume ourselves

In this mindless paradigm
We can only decline
In this mindless paradigm
We can only decline
In this mindless paradigm
We can only decline
