The World As We Know It

Song Lyrics

Verse 1

Welcome to the world
As we know it
Are we proud
Are we proud yet
Is this madness
And carnage 

Really what we
Fucking wanted
Is life truly
All we dreamed of
Following hate
Like puppets
While that hate 
Takes the freedom

Away from people
We have been told 
To want to hate
While our lives are
Systematically
Blown away
Day after day
But hey
Don't worry says 
The puppet master
Trust me

It will all be ok

Chorus
Follow the white rabbit
Put your cares aside
Follow the white rabbit
Don't worry
You'll be just fine
Follow the white rabbit
As it controls your mind

Verse 2
Mass shootings
On the rise
At least the last one
Only one dead
Our thoughts
Shouldn't have to be like that
We know that's not right
And yet here we are

Once again
We don't need
Nightmares anymore
To keep us up at night
We live them during the day
And for fucks sake

They just won't
Ever go away
It's like we are playing
A game with our
Own damn selves
We won't let ourselves win
It's so insane
It makes my head spin

And yet without fail
The puppet masters
Make it all show
So we will give up
The freedoms
We have always known
And without question too
Shhhh they say
It will all be over soon

Chorus
