lirik lagu abrupt decay - the illusion of our choices...

you will never see me beg
you exist only to complain
but now i’ve got you by the throat
let’s see you talk your way out of this one

(for i was hungry and you gave me food)
(for i was thirsty and you gave me drink)

there are billions of people who have f~cking nothing
who have no chance to even try
who have to spend every minute searching for necessary necessities needed just to survive

(whoever gives to the needy shall not want, but he who hides his eyes to the world shall be cursed)

and yet you stand there like a stupid f~cking hypocrite

every day you live your life and make your “conscious” choices
of where to go and things to do and what to eat and say and buy
it’s all i have
not to give up each and every night of my life

there’s a certain swirling static that washes over me when i ponder
when i’m thinking about how i ended up in the city where i live, and the country that i’m from
and i feel a gratitude for everything that i’ve been given
but then the realization of the other side of the coin hits
and the illusion of choice is shattered
we are all randomly assigned to be here
and the harsh reality
is that we have more than enough in our world
but still don’t give a f~ck about
the fact that people are forced into sweatshop labour for cents
or that a third of the world is struggling for food every night
i don’t understand how we’ve grown so accustomed to this
a callousness that has grown over our humanity;
that we can just consider this our normal
i am just as powerless to this change as the rest

what’s the point if i have nothing left?
what’s the point when there’s nothing i can do?
what’s the point being held hostage to what harm does?
what’s the point to living like this?

she asked me what i thought was the real meaning
to a life that people never get to live
but to her she felt that she had made her choices
i never got the chance or strength to find those words
but, if this is all there is
if this is all we have
just an endless machine
that fuels more and more death
at least i’ve made my choice
i’ve drawn my line in the sand
don’t let them choose for you
we can live without the blood on our hands

can you see your hands?

it’s the illusion of our choices in a
world
world
world of no options
it’s all there is…
