Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The country's spinning fast, can't keep up with the pace,
Chaos in the streets, militia staring in our face,
Kids left without promises, no vaccines in sight,
Just a memory of good health that fades into the night.
Put the different ones away, on a flight to the unknown,
Locked up in prison camps, where humanity's blown.
Fire all the doctors, let 'em go, let 'em leave,
Public health forgotten, in a country hard to believe.
[Chorus]
Don't you understand the danger, can't you see the signs?
Every headline screams madness, yet we stay in our lines.
Are you not alarmed by this regression to the past?
Surely life was better in modern times. Aren't you aghast?
[Verse 2]
Is this the future we wanted, a life built on fear?
When did kindness turn to ashes and compassion disappear?
Searching for a glimmer of hope in the fight,
But every day there's new craziness, no end in sight.
Where's the love for each other, can't we break through this stage?
Or will we keep on spinning, just lost in our rage?
[Chorus]
Don't you understand the danger, can't you see the signs?
Every headline screams madness, yet we stay in our lines.
Are you not alarmed by this regression to the past?
Surely life was better in modern times. Aren't you aghast?
[Bridge]
Today they talk of traffickers as terrorists in disguise,
Who should be facing down the barrel no matter what their size.
Shoot on sight with no warning, where's the line we draw?
Morality is fading, but we're becoming blind to the flaw.
Crazier, crazier, each day takes its toll,
Drowning in uncertainty, when did we lose control?
[Outro]
So here we stand together, in this endless dismay,
Riding waves of tempests that get crazier every day.
But there's a light inside us, we can shine through the grey,
Let's rise from this madness, tell me we can find a better way.
