Reality Bath

[Verse 1] Anxious steps every day through the halls of learning She's watching every corner  she's praying for a warning She's just a child of eight years old already scared to die And no one's done a fucking thing but watch the bullets fly Our nerves are cobwebbed with the dust of atrocity The deadly daily spectacle erodes humanity Jaded and desensitized a spreading apathy Fast forgotten thoughts and prayers for numbers on a screen For numbers on a screen [Chorus] Another massacre  another day gone by Is this the new abnormal Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye This is the new abnormal [Verse 2] Anguished steps through the ashes of a blackened plain He used to walk the jungle there in perfect harmony He's an old man of eighty years last of a different world Progress has wiped his people out they never will return Out of sight out of our minds four thousand miles away Our willful ignorance will turn this home into a grave The air is getting thinner our lungs are set ablaze We've consumed ourselves to death catastrophe More numbers on a screen [Chorus] Another massacre another day gone by Is this the new abnormal Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye This is the new abnormal [Bridge] Slip so easily into dull indifference When horror has been normalized a cynical defense But I can't sit there silently and watch it all go by The strongest hearts will raise their voice against the murderous tide No No it can't go on like this Millions of voices echo in the darkness screaming No No I won't accept this The faint of heart will fall in line but I will not submit [Chorus] Another massacre another day gone by Is this the new abnormal Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye This is the new abnormal [Outro] More numbers on a screen Reject the new abnormal
