The End of Civility
Where is our compassion?
Where's our sympathy?
Sucker punched in broad daylight
Bullets in the streets
Where is our emotion?
Where's our empathy?
Burned up in a shameful blaze
A bonfire at our knees
At our knees
Inside the the light is slowly fading
Protect yourself, forget the rest
Filthy politicians inside trading
Drop kick the babies from the nest
Girl hidden underneath a staircase
How did it ever come to this??
We're slipping into darkness
We're falling out of grace
Stumbling to the downfall
Of the human race
It's the end of emotion
The end of empathy
The information age has quietly ushered in the end
Of civility
We've got to tame our killer instinct
Turn our direction toward the light
Fill up our lives with love and life!!
It's all we have
This bridge is falling apart!!
This tower is crumbling to dust!
This train is coming off the rails!!
These hearts are going to get crushed
Project our light in all directions
Cascading through the stratosphere
Send it up, we make connections
Hold the light
Hold it dear
We're slipping into darkness
We're falling out of grace
Stumbling to the downfall
Of the human race
It's the end of emotion
The end of empathy
The information age has quietly ushered in the end
Where is our compassion?
Where's our sympathy?
Sucker punched in broad daylight
Bullets in the streets.
Where is our emotion?
Where's our empathy?
Burned up in a shameful blaze
A bonfire at our knees
At our knees
Where's our sympathy?
Sucker punched in broad daylight
Bullets in the streets
Where is our emotion?
Where's our empathy?
Burned up in a shameful blaze
A bonfire at our knees
At our knees
Inside the the light is slowly fading
Protect yourself, forget the rest
Filthy politicians inside trading
Drop kick the babies from the nest
Girl hidden underneath a staircase
How did it ever come to this??
We're slipping into darkness
We're falling out of grace
Stumbling to the downfall
Of the human race
It's the end of emotion
The end of empathy
The information age has quietly ushered in the end
Of civility
We've got to tame our killer instinct
Turn our direction toward the light
Fill up our lives with love and life!!
It's all we have
This bridge is falling apart!!
This tower is crumbling to dust!
This train is coming off the rails!!
These hearts are going to get crushed
Project our light in all directions
Cascading through the stratosphere
Send it up, we make connections
Hold the light
Hold it dear
We're slipping into darkness
We're falling out of grace
Stumbling to the downfall
Of the human race
It's the end of emotion
The end of empathy
The information age has quietly ushered in the end
Where is our compassion?
Where's our sympathy?
Sucker punched in broad daylight
Bullets in the streets.
Where is our emotion?
Where's our empathy?
Burned up in a shameful blaze
A bonfire at our knees
At our knees
