Before We Fell

We were supposed to be
The shining example
Now the world's watching
Our selves destruct and dismantle
The end of everything
Is televised
Incentivized
Turn off your phone screens
We're burning both sides of the candle
The fear sells magazines
Death pushes ratings
Few and far in between
The truth isn't up for debating

Is there a way back?
Can we all get along?
Is there a way back?
Can we all get along?

Overrun city
On the brink of collapse
Hopeful wishing
On a deity's lap
Try not to cry, my child
Sensations numb
Civilizations wild
What have we become?
We anticipate
Standing at the end of the world on fire
On fire

A poetic
Nightmare
So pathetic
Right here
A poetic
Nightmare
So pathetic
Right here

Is there a way back?
Can we all get along?
Is there a way back?
Can we all get along?
