Fall Out

Tragedies killing disasters like clockwork
 Maybe I'm just jaded
 But I don't see the beauty anymore
 And so I mourn for every child born
 Into this ugly and unforgiving world
 We're dropping' bodies, droppin' bombs
 No remorse, no restraint at all
 What's left for the ones who come after us?
 Bloody rubble and a dream coated in dust
 ♪
 How much further do we plan to take it
 Slash and burn 'til the planet lies vacant
 And I've always heard that when it rains it pours
 If we let the cops pull us over
 Next they'll bust down our doors
 The prisons are loaded, the quotas are met
 We're starving in gutters and drowning in debt
 The system has faltered, there's no help to call for
 Let's open the toolbox and build something better
 God I hope we haven't buried ourselves too deep
 Beneath a mountain of abhorrent ideas and greed
 And I really wish I had some hope for the future
 But I'm sorry, gotta say I don't
 God, I hope we haven't buried ourselves too deep
 Beneath a mountain of abhorrent ideas and greed
 And I really wish I had some hope for the future
 But I'm sorry, gotta say I don't

 2053 missiles deployed
 Soon we'll be shifting through
 The ashs of a planet destroyed
 The human race is just a parasitic toxic disease
 We're paving over forests and we're poisoning the seas
 A wasteland what once was pure
 Decrepit now we've torn the sails
 A travesty a wasted chance
 The bridge to growth was built to fail
 A hourglass is running low
 Rusted gears begin to slow
 When this modern daydream does collapse
 We'll all be begging for the past
 God, I hope we haven't buried ourselves too deep
 Beneath a mountain of abhorrent ideas and greed
 And I really wish I had some hope for the future
 But I'm sorry, gotta say I don't
 God, I hope we haven't buried ourselves too deep
 Beneath a mountain of abhorrent ideas and greed
 And I really wish I had some hope for the future
