out for ourselves, bred to consume in pursuit of wealth
 and the ones in charge, once secure show disregard
 for future generations who must endure what's left behind
 no compassion, no caution, no forethought
 potential for a fall
 no forethought, no vision, no future
 potential for a fall
 go about our lives as we turn a blind eye
 as long as i get mine
 potential for a fall
 submissive, complacent, sit back and let it slip away
 just can't seem to hold it together
 and yet we continue with the charade of being individuals
 as we get spoon-fed, kept in check by the latest trends
 are we that shallow? is getting your groove on all that matters?
 i'm not asking you to bleed but show consideration please
 sit back and let it slip away
 we can't seem to hold it together we can't seem to get it right
