They say living is a gift and dying is a wish
but you can’t rearrange the alphabet.
Dying is a gift
and living is a death wish.

They say stars shine and the moon’s made of cheese
Then why are people still hungry?
How come when I look into the sky,
the city lights drowned out the stars?

It’s like with each fast food burger we consume,
we’re being fed lies
And every time we’re at a check out line,
we are being hypnotized

The world is a fucked up place.

They say the Holocaust didn’t happen
that JFK wasn’t shot
Every year we get stupider and stupider
or maybe it’s just that we’re afraid.

They say “don’t go too fast”
“don’t go too slow”
but the speed limits everywhere you go,
they change

It’s like a wave of insanity
has crashed over us
And all we care about is ammunition
and drama

They say peace is a lost entity
that it cannot be achieved
Well, no one was born
knowing how to hate

The world is a fucked up place.
