Speculations//phobias Lyrics & Chords By After Me, The Flood

Greed has poisoned men's souls
Has barricaded the world with hate
Has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed
We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in
Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want
Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness, hard and unkind
We think too much and feel too little
More than machinery, we need humanity
More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness
Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost
The airplane and the radio have brought us closer together
The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men
Cries out for universal brotherhood, for the unity of us all
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world
A crack in the surface of human nature is crumbling the ground below me.
What I'm seeing can't be real.
An unbelievable hoard of corruption in a place we call secure.
What the fuck have we all come to?
Ripping at each others' throats.
The biting of tongues are making everyone's mouths' bleed.
No one is coming to save us from ourselves.
Seems like we are running in circles, this is a never-ending cycle.
Careless ignorance. Where has the conscience mind gone?
Slowly we sink, civilization drowns.
This world is not our home.
Disappointed, people won't go empty handed.
Here is the resting place of humanity.
Here is humanity, it ended in selfishness.
