Alex Abolition - Devolution Lyrics

Cognition comes in waves
Sometimes minor sometimes deranged
People are stocking up on guns
Hoping the apocalypse could be some fun
What drives us to action what makes us tick
How can we be so f*cking thick
We're hoarding things that we don't need
Pushed in a corner we all turn to greed

Are we as evolved as we claim
Or is this just some sick vindictive game
Instead of helping we make things worse
Is humanity just a curse

I was born and I will die
I still live though I ask myself why
Why do I try when failure's always in tow
I could be sleeping six feet below

Are we as evolved as we claim
Or is this just some sick vindictive game
Instead of helping we make things worse
Is humanity just a curse

When we're gone will they wonder
Why we tore ourselves asunder
For things with no value that let us claim we were rich
Disregarding all the things we could fix

We're petty we're fearful
Question us you'll get an earful
We're angry we're self serving
Blindly consumed by fiscal earning
The only guarantee is we're all gonna die
But we put our faith in the sky

Are we as evolved as we claim
Or is this just some sick vindictive game
Instead of helping we make things worse
Is humanity just a curse
