All Fall Down

the air stings my eyes
the water burns my skin
I've seen the reactions through my actions
but I don't try to change a thing at all
we're taught to close our eyes and conditioned
to believe their lies as we watch them
rape the land and skies to build the
things that own our lives and we'll
never stop were driven by greed we'll
never stop we take more than we need and
they'll never stop the politicians with their
lies the corporations [bad word] still
we refuse to change our lives and - we all
fall down - we do what is convenient for
ourselves without regard for our surroundings
or each other and take what we want and discard
the rest never looking back at the damage
that we've done always moving forward
closer to oblivion
