THE DECLINE LYRICS

"You Died...Losing 16 Experience Points"

But you don’t see - Their lives are thrown before you, didn’t watch them go.
But that’s okay, cause everyday
It happens a million goddamn times
How many people know?

Your parents will not invite them to tea
The lucky few who have scored immunity
It’s only on TV

Destruction is a normal thing, a way of life, an every day occurrence.
Is that the way That we’ve become?
Only caring about ourselves not looking out for anyone

Your parents wont call them over to play
They won’t like the pies and they’ll bring the wrong cake
Eat up your peas or you’ll catch a disease (you’ve had it before, you’ve had it before)
A rabbit will kill you if you don’t say please (it's happened before, it's happened before)

To think about the days
When disposability and hate
Were not the things that we
That we were taught to see
To think about the days
A time where you and I were free
From all the lies and mistrust
All the bullshit that they feed us.

Is our humanity so disposable?
When lives are wrecked we shrug our shoulders, turn our face away?
The other side can’t hide everything forever but how we’ve tried,
We’ve shown them that and I think we’ve seen enough.

Your parents wont call them over to play
They won’t like the pies and they’ll bring the wrong cake
Accepting death as a way of life’s a-ok!
Statistics not tragedy, keep them at bay.
You’ll guard the house as your nails claw you seat,
Your children will sleep while the dead line the streets
