Title: State Of Decay

Burnt out buildings
Crumbling institutions
Unlimited borrowing
National debts that can never be repaid
State of decay

Hollow people
Shallow friendships
Meaningless encounters
Vanity is king in the world of the selfish
State of decay

Work hard
Pay debts
Then die
Over fed and under read
State of decay

Hurricanes keep on growing
Sea levels keep on rising
Temperatures keep on soaring
There'll come an end for many in this state
State of decay
