Ruins of Ignorance
Unraveling the Ruins of Society: Project Pitchfork's Poignant Reflection
Lyrics
In this society we learn to live
In this society, we acquire the skills to survive.
We learn to read and to write
We learn literacy, the ability to read and write.
We learn to communicate
We learn the art of communication.
We learn to build our bombs
We learn to create destructive weapons.
We learn to build our factories
We learn to establish industrial complexes.
We learn how to destroy ourselves
We learn methods of self-destruction.
We've unlearned to feel
We have lost the ability to experience emotions.
Forgotten how pain is like
We have forgotten the sensation of pain.
We've unlearned to see
We no longer perceive the world around us.
Forgotten what nature means
We have forgotten the true meaning of nature.
From the day of your birth
These traits have been ingrained in us since birth.
We've unlearned to love
We have abandoned the ability to love.
Forgotten how to accept each other
We have forgotten how to accept one another.
But we have to hold together
Despite our shortcomings, we must unite.
With intelligence and the strength inside of us
Our unity should be based on intelligence and inner strength.
Fight together with values and not with weapons
We should confront challenges with values, not weapons.
The ruin of this planet
The destruction of our world is caused by the killing of animals and nature.
Set by the killing of animal and nature
Human misconduct contributes to the ruin of the planet.
People fuck dead corpses
Extreme and immoral acts, like necrophilia, occur.
And the pope gets furious about condoms
An ironic contrast: the Pope condemns condoms amidst greater issues.
The world is made out of darkness and hate
The world is characterized by darkness, hatred, wealth, and greed.
Wealth and greed let evil rule
Wealth and greed empower evil forces to dominate.
