Capstan - Terminal lyrics
[Capstan - Terminal lyrics]
Plagued by indifference and apathy
If we had souls, they've atrophied
It's all too easy to disregard a tragedy
When empathy can't extend past what we see
With eyes focused on the comfort of the norm
We consume and conform
I'm lost in the same condition
A voice in my head, but I don't wanna listen
I'm taking for granted all
That I've been given
Just a part of the system
These hearts aren't hardened
Merely ignorant
Our nature is to care
But we nurture our differences
Encouraged divisions to hold our attention
Causing dispute keeps the true rift hidden
Rich against poor, slave against master
The only battle that matters
I'm lost in the same condition
A voice in my head, but I don't listen
I'm taking for granted all
That I've been given
Just a part of the system
Automation, a mechanism, perpetuating
All that's wrong
Ignorant bliss
Watch in silence, deny the violence
Pile up the money and the
Guilt that we'll die with
Forget what you think, go watch your TV
No sympathy for anyone who isn't "free"
If we had souls, they've atrophied
It's all too easy to disregard a tragedy
When empathy can't extend past what we see
With eyes focused on the comfort of the norm
We consume and conform
I'm lost in the same condition
A voice in my head, but I don't wanna listen
I'm taking for granted all
That I've been given
Just a part of the system
These hearts aren't hardened
Merely ignorant
Our nature is to care
But we nurture our differences
Encouraged divisions to hold our attention
Causing dispute keeps the true rift hidden
Rich against poor, slave against master
The only battle that matters
I'm lost in the same condition
A voice in my head, but I don't listen
I'm taking for granted all
That I've been given
Just a part of the system
Automation, a mechanism, perpetuating
All that's wrong
Ignorant bliss
Watch in silence, deny the violence
Pile up the money and the
Guilt that we'll die with
Forget what you think, go watch your TV
No sympathy for anyone who isn't "free"
