Lyrics
Take another pill
Indulging in medication as a coping mechanism
Drink another shot
Using alcohol to escape or numb the pain
Anything to make you forget
Doing anything to erase or suppress memories or troubles
Buy another car
Materialistic pursuits, possibly to fill a void
Go under the knife
Opting for cosmetic surgery or alterations
You ain't getting older yet
Denying the inevitability of aging
How can't we see
Questioning the lack of awareness
In this war that we're fighting
Perceiving existence as a battle
We're the enemy
Realizing we are the ones causing harm
We leave behind
Leaving a legacy of devastation
Destruction too big
Creating immense destruction
Then pretend to be blind
Pretending ignorance to our actions
And the world keeps spinning
Life continues, seemingly unaffected by our actions
As if there is nothing wrong
Ignoring or downplaying the evident issues
And we keep on killing
Continuing destructive behaviors
'Til everything is gone
Until irreversible damage is done
So shed a tear for our end
Expressing sorrow for the inevitable downfall
Or keep spending cash 'til there won't be no time to spend
Choosing between acknowledging the end or reckless consumption
Throw another cup
Disregarding waste, contributing to pollution
In a plastic bag
Plastic pollution, symbolizing environmental degradation
Chuck it right into the sea
Irresponsibly disposing of waste
Shoot another gun
Utilizing firearms, possibly for conflict or violence
Start another war
Initiating wars or conflicts
Chop down another tree
Destructive actions toward nature
How don't we see
Reiterating the lack of awareness
In this war that we're fighting
Perceiving life as a continuous battle
We're the enemy
Realizing we are our own adversaries
We leave behind
Leaving behind immense devastation
Destruction too big
Creating irreversible damage
Then pretend to be blind
Choosing ignorance toward our impact
And the world keeps spinning
Continuing life, seemingly indifferent to our actions
As if there is nothing wrong
Disregarding or denying evident problems
And we keep on killing
Continuing destructive behaviors
'Til everything is gone
Until everything is destroyed
So shed a tear for our end
Expressing grief for the inevitable end
Or keep spending cash 'til there won't be no time to spend
Choosing between acknowledging the end or reckless consumption (repeated from line 21)
And the world keeps spinning
Life continues, seemingly unaffected by our actions (repeated from line 16)
As if there is nothing wrong
Ignoring or downplaying the evident issues (repeated from line 17)
And we keep on killing
Continuing destructive behaviors (repeated from line 18)
'Til everything is gone
Until irreversible damage is done (repeated from line 19)
So shed a tear for our end
Expressing sorrow for the inevitable downfall (repeated from line 20)
Or keep spending cash 'til there won't be no time to spend
Choosing between acknowledging the end or reckless consumption (repeated from line 21)
