People. Do we call this trying?
We're hopeless
Forget the denying. Our souls are corrupt
Our minds are messed up
Our consciences bankrupt. Oh, we're fucked
People. What are we thinking?
It's shameful. Our standards are sinking
We're barely hanging on
Our spirit has gone
And once where it shone
I hear a lonesome song
People. How are we coping?
It's futile. To even start hoping
That justice will prevail
That truth will tip the scales
Our dignity has sailed. Oh, we've failed
