DEVOLUTION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

TV headlines of tragedies
I’ve seen things that I can’t unsee
Static signals of lines we’ve crossed
Ashes replace all that we’ve lost<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pain inside so deep it just wont soothe
What a world that we have left our youth<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Killers, we create you
Apathy towards an honest truth
Filtered, in your solitude
Black box theory controlling you
It’s only devolution failing you<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thoughts and prayers
Fake emoti-Gods
I question if you’re human
And what planet that I’m on
Outstretch your arms, it can heal all your hurt
Head buried while the world ’round you burns<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Devolution (I can’t unsee)
Devolution (Why can’t you see)
It’s devolution failing you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
