decline lyrics

It's easy we scream for change
When everyday we act the same
How can a troubled government make us scapegoats?
When we don't go out and vote

We're spewing, spouting, condemnation
That the world we live in is a racist nation
Since our opinions contradict our statements
We show our prejudiced affiliations

Decline the civilization
A crime against humanity
In all our lies and our self pity
It's time to stop our apathy

You say you're a victim in pain
But you always prey on someone to blame
You want to end the suffering for the hungry and the poor
When they ask for help you slam the door

You want housing for the public good
But not in your own neighborhood
Industrial pollution makes you sick
But you ain't got time for politics

Decline the civilization
A crime against humanity
In all our lies and our self pity
It's time to stop our apathy

Decline the civilization
A crime against humanity
In all our lies and our self pity
It's time to stop our apathy

You want the world to be a better place
For your children, your people, your friends or race
But selfish reasons drive us all, it's all for one and none for all
The truth means nothing in a world full of lies
Hypocrisy is man's demise
The truth means nothing in a world full of lies
Hypocrisy is man's demise

You want the world to be a better place
For your children, your people, your friends or race
But selfish reasons drive us all, it's all for one and none for all
Hypocrisy is man's demise
