Virus of Humanity
Humans want it all and they want it right now
They just want theirs and they do not care how
The harsh truth is that we are all here just to survive
We join this material rat race and fail to feel truly alive
Sold the lie that we exist to try and be happy
We fail over and over in this collapsing society
I’m so fucking tired of watching this mess spread
I’m so fucking tired of seeing so many that inside are already dead
Everyone we love will die and the future is misery
Walking through life with their eyes closed; it's too painful to see
Multiplying, spreading, and ruining
Humanity will be humanity’s undoing
They do not care for the future for they will be dead anyway
The world can die, but it should wait until they're in a state of decay
Speeding towards the Earth’s finite wall
Living in the age of the human race’s fall
Overpopulation, coming to a planet near you
Overpopulation, and nothing you can do
Overpopulation, use up all with endless greed
Overpopulation, nothing will fill this destructive need
All I see is the virus of humanity
Self absorbed and all about me
The virus of humanity
Eyes closed because it's too painful to see
The virus of humanity

We get the I Want bug at birth and want more as we die. I want wealth and power, I will have neither wealth nor power. I do wish those with wealth and power are wise, but I am a dreamer. ~A~
