Why Is It?

Why is it that when I wake
I make sure that I'm up to date
On all the bad things taking place
In this world I want, I want, I want to love?

Why is it that every night
Right before I shut my eyes
I keep them open to catch the darkness in this life
In this world I want, I want, I want to love?

And this constant stream
Is killing me
I can't cope
And this daily need
To overfeed
Soon I'll explode

Why is it that through the day
I feel like I need to escape
To grab that quick fix of pleasure, knowing it brings pain
In my world I want, I want, I want to love?

And this constant stream
Is killing me
I can't cope
And this daily need
To overfeed
Soon I'll explode
And that itchy thumb
Will make you dumb
When you can only live
With the power on
Life neglect machine
Supporting red hot needs
Numbing reality
Until no-one is living
No-one is living...
