Lamb Of God - Reality Bath lyrics
[Lamb Of God - Reality Bath lyrics]
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)
Another massacre, another day gone by
Is this the new abnormal?
Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye
This is the new abnormal
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)
Another massacre, another day gone by
Is this the new abnormal?
Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye
This is the new abnormal
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
Another massacre, another day gone by
Is this the new abnormal?
Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye
This is the new abnormal
(More numbers on a screen)
Reject the new abnormal
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)
Another massacre, another day gone by
Is this the new abnormal?
Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye
This is the new abnormal
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)
Another massacre, another day gone by
Is this the new abnormal?
Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye
This is the new abnormal
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

Another massacre, another day gone by
Is this the new abnormal?
Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye
This is the new abnormal
(More numbers on a screen)
Reject the new abnormal
