Descending virtue
Ascending vice
The condemnation of mankind before your eyes
It's set in motion
There's no escape
The gift of freedom is torn murdered and raped
Our guilty pleasures absence of guilt
Our continuation of living lives in filth
Our need for self indulgence absence self restraint
Has guaranteed mankind a certain world of pain
We're unaffected and protected by our ignorant bliss
We are uncaring, unaware of all the things that we miss
The seeds of evil were planted there
Before any of us could even know or care
The tree that grew there
Will yield more
Its fruit is rotten down to the core
Yet we devour with voracious appetite
A rampant hunger we do not care to fight
And thus we fill our bodies with greed and hate
Then turn against each other sealing mankind's fate
We kill each other and we smother every sign of regret
Our own desire will backfire and will see to our end
We're dissemblers
We won't admit
We're not blindfolded
We just don't give a shit
