Metric

We're drowning in a faucet's drip
Disguising your hate as politics
Make enough noise and you might cut through
If it's a lie then I guess it must be true
Propped up socials on the evening news
It's all about me, it's all about you

It's not your fault
You live in a failed state
That touts its intellectual poverty as
Something that's so great
Kudos to you, you're such a faithful servant
And when the world's an empty husk
Congrats, you really earned it

Every single word rings hollow
The disconnect is hard to swallow
Have we any pride, and any shame
Demagogues and Wall Street trolls
Your selfish crimes will kill us all
I suppose
Some species never evolve

I know no one wants to hear this shit anymore
But most don't have the choice to close the door
Opened it up so they'd fall through the cracks
The numbers don't lie, how the cards are stacked
Really hoping no one pays mind to the facts
Unless you're white, rich and don't pay tax

It's all your fault
You thrive in this failed state
Built for you by stolen kin that you
Shower with your hate
It's ironic when you just can't trust the science
But you're so quick to trust the rich
And so damn quick to violence

Every single word rings hollow
The disconnect is hard to swallow
Have we any pride, and any shame
Demagogues and Wall Street trolls
Your selfish crimes will kill us all
I suppose
Some species never evolve

Never evolve
Oh

I still
I still believe that
I still
I still believe that
That we can evolve
