Are we addicted to the madness, to live in an asylum
Did we lose our mind, entertained only by mayhem
Is our belief in hope lost, our rage become open fire
Immune to any discipline, emotions ruled by desire
As civilizations collapse, conscience grown silent
Fixated upon pleasure, from food, sex, or violence
Collapse is beckons, there will soon be a reckoning
In time civilization might recover, should it be so
Should we have to fall before we learn, or grow
Why must wisdom be earned, lost and repeated?
Why are we always condemned to be defeated?
