Misery

Bodies are burning on our tv screens
Chaos unfolding in the streets
Desensitised by what we've seen
21st century modern life misery
Modern life misery

Let's go
Free thinking replaced by alternative facts
Loud voices
Skewed views
Far easier to consume than the truth

Still debating the written past
Throwing stones from houses made of glass
As we accelerate to the inevitable crash
Is this progress?
I don't believe
Abortion laws
Culture wars
ADHD
Children of the digital age unaware of their demise
After all these years
Time Is still the enemy
We're all living in this
21st century, modern life misery
Modern life misery

Bodies are burning on our tv screens
Chaos unfolding in the streets
Desensitised by what we've seen
Modern life misery
Modern life misery

Through these eyes
I know why
I'll live and die on the outside
