Rub one's eyes

Take deep breaths                    
Exhale slow                      
                      
Can you feel the distress                        
Wrapped around your neck                      
Creeping down your spine                      
Disabling you every time                      
                     
Does anybody give a shit                        
Or will we just die with it                      
Killing for our father's                      
Bowing to the dollar                  
                     
Now you all question me (and so do I)                      
Noone knows the truth today (sell it to us)                      
Numbing all our senses (for tomorrow)                      
We needed to bloom yesterday                   
                     
Can you feel the distress                        
Wrapped around your neck                      
Creeping down your spine                      
Disabling you every time                      
                     
Does anybody give a shit                        
Or will we just die with it                      
Exploiting our ignorance                         
Raping the environment              
                    
Now you all question me (and so do I)                      
Noone knows the truth today (sell it to us)                    
Numbing all our senses (for tomorrow)                      
We needed to bloom yesterday                      
                     
Are we living & learning!?                      
                     
Take deep breaths                      
Exhale slow
