Frogs inside a Pot

I am dying inside
I wanted to save your life

Generation Z is hooked on nicotine
And posing nude for cameras in their teens
Treating immorality like a vending machine
I sold my soul so give me fame
I sold my soul to have this face
I sold my soul I fell from grace but it's ok cuz I don't need it anyway
Please don't desecrate yourselves
I know we're all living in hell
Just decide to crawl out of your shell
I know it feels as though you might as well
Stay inside a shallow bubble
For the rest of your days without adversities
With liars in universities
And like-minded fools inside your twitter feeds
But this is not okay
What would it take to put the phone away?
Whether it's hate or commiserating
Don't worry what other people say
Your value is intrinsic
Don't throw that all away
I can see your suffering
And I can feel your pain

I am dying inside
I wanted to save your life

I don't blame one generation
I don't blame a single nation
I blame the way we were created
We are flawed
We all fall
And we all have something wrong
Those that haven't noticed yet are like the frogs inside the pot
The water is getting hotter but they just learned to adjust
And wonder why all the fuss
Because they're feeling fine
And I'm just glad that my mind tells me different lies
So I can stay alive
And now I realize
We all get angry at the boiling water
When it's our lack of thought that leads us to the slaughter
We check our closets for monsters
Like they aren't inside our heads
And we check under our beds
While our thoughts tear us to shreds
Sometimes we'd rather be dead
Than sort the thoughts in our heads
Organize our rooms instead
Anxious until 3AM
Wondering when and if all of this will end

I am dying inside
I wanted to save your life
I am dying inside
I wanted to save your life
I am dying inside
I wanted to save your life
I am dying inside
I wanted to save your life
I am dying inside
I wanted to save your life
I am dying inside
