You Died... Losing 16 Experience Points
The Decline
But you don’t see
Their lives are thrown before you
Didn’t watch them go but that’s okay
'Cause everyday
It happens a million goddamn times
How many people know?
Your parents will not invite them to tea
The lucky few who have scored immunity
It’s only on TV
Only on TV, only on TV, only on TV
Destruction is
A normal thing, a way of life, an every day occurrence
Is that the way that we’ve become?
Only caring about ourselves not looking out for anyone
Your parents wont call them over to play
They won’t like the pies and they’ll bring the wrong cake
Eat up your peas or you’ll catch a disease
You’ve had it before, you’ve had it before
A rabbit will kill you if you don’t say please
It's happened before
To think about the days
When disposability and hate
Were not the things that we
We were meant to see
To think about the days
A time where you and I were free
From all the lies and mistrust
All the bullshit that they feed us
Is our humanity so disposable?
When lives are wrecked we shrug our shoulders
Turn our face away?
The other side can’t hide forever
But how we’ve tried
We’ve shown them that and I think we’ve seen enough
Your parents wont call them over to play
They won’t like the pies and they’ll bring the wrong cake
Accepting death as a way of life’s a-ok!
Statistics not tragedy, keep them at bay
You’ll guard the house as your nails claw you seat
Your children will sleep while the dead line the streets
