Lost in the Current - Empty Hands Closed Fists Lyrics

Advancing detriment
A land curse ravaged
This is my final sentiment
Hollow promises
Of what life should be
But the world is cruel and
Anger wells inside of me

We live in a world of excess
Where children starve to death
Lies of a hollow progress
Lined pockets of the congress
No cost effective
Final solution
Millions condemned
To take their final breath

I'm so sick and tired of
All the excuses for
Why we are so hateful
And unwilling to reform

I'm so sick and tired
Of excuses for
Why we are so hateful
And unwilling to reform
Infinite ungrateful
Yet so quick to cast the scorn
On lives that they deem shameful
But they're in their houses warm
Never missed a plateful
Or wished that they were never born

I'm so sick and tired
Of excuses for
Why we are so hateful
And unwilling to reform
The crying and the screaming
I wish my ears were torn
But they're real and bleeding
We need the world to be reborn

Rebirth
For the earth
Cleanse the dirt
Take the power
From the inert
