WE’RE LIVING IN A WORLD OF DIRT
A CITY FULL OF SIN
NO SHAME FOR ALL THE THINGS WE’VE DONE
OR FOR THE MESS WE’RE IN.
LITTER BLOWS ABOUT THE STREETS
THROWN FROM HOME AND CAR,
THERE IS NO PRIDE IN HOW WE LIVE
HOW DID WE FALL SO FAR?
WE SEEM TO NEED DESTRUCTION
VIOLENCE AND PAIN,
AND YET WE ONLY HAVE ONE WORLD
THE CHANCE WON’T COME AGAIN.
WILL OUR CHILDREN LOVE US
IN THE YEARS TO COME,
DO YOU THINK THEY’LL THANK US
FOR ALL THE THINGS WE’VE DONE,
OR AS THEY GROW AND LOOK AROUND
WILL THEY TOO BECOME,
UNCARING AND DESRUCTIVE
OBLIVIOUS AND NUMB!
