Life's uncertainties,
Two days are not the same,
You can't tell what the outcome will be,
Overwhelming peace while racial tension breeds,
Wealth and poverty, both need eyes to see.
We're on the downslide,
We're on the downside.
Cataclysmic minds unite to procreate,
Perverse offspring of our technology,
Leeching, collaborate,
Cut off your nose to spite your face,
Weakening by the system that buckles at the knees.
We're on the downslide,
We're on the downside.
Nuclear holocaust; is this our destiny?
Destroy our future,
Perpetual wasteland,
Leaders not exempt to their mortality,
And, even still, our lives are held in their hands.
We're on the downslide,
We're on the downside,
We're on the downslide,
We're on the downside.
