I was not ready to die
I thought I’d live a long life
oh jesus!some shit is going downand I’m changing my mind
this is not how we evolve
this is not how we progress
sliding down a slippery slope with hell at the bottom
(when) it’s not fair
I reserve the right to look the other way
when you’re not here
I refuse to fight and live another day
it’s not the end of the world
but I feel sure that it is
becoming
the kind of world that I wouldn’t want to live in
this is not how we evolve
this is not how we progress
sliding down
I’ve given up hope that it’s ever getting better
(when) it’s not fair
I reserve the right to look the other way
when you’re not here
I refuse to fight to live another day
It’s a cop-out
but I’m sure I’ll find a way to deny my shame
this is not how we evolve
this is not how we progress
this is not how we evolve
this is not how we progress
