Society We are all diseased, plagued by
Images promoting lustful actions.
A cancerous itch scratched incessantly
Breeding disease through our society
Where thoughts are contaminated.
A culture instructed to curse the sacred,
Appointed to strip themselves of dignity
And enwrap themselves in carnal desires,
A society where self-control is not regarded
But thrown floor side next to clothing.
Daughters of a generation are bred
To believe acceptance is attainable,
Just dress scantily-clad, feed hungry eyes
Satisfy every boy’s lascivious cravings,
But ultimately both hearts are left deprived.

We are all diseased, plagued by
images promoting lustful actions.
A cancerous itch scratched incessantly
breeding disease through our society
where thoughts are contaminated.
A culture instructed to curse the sacred,
forced to strip themselves of dignity
and cover themselves with carnal desires,
a society where self-control is not regarded
but discarded floor side next to clothing.
Daughters of a generation are bred
to believe acceptance is attainable,
just dress scantily-clad, feed hungry eyes
satisfy every boy’s lascivious cravings,
but ultimately both hearts are left deprived.
I agree. If there is one thing to blame, it's advertisement. TV, radio, magazines, you name it, it's there; the common marketing strategy of "sex sells."
