Eyes Still Closed (E)

You scroll, you shrug and roll your eyes While the whole world burns and smoke fills the skies Sirens cut through the evening air You look away like you don't care Crime goes up and the shelves go bare It don't affect you So you keep that dumbass stare You say "not my mess" and pass it by Then act surprised when the whole thing dies Wake up, wake up Look at what you feed Wake up, wake up This is what Indifference breeds Eyes still closed Hands still clean You want peace But you aint got the balls To change the scene Eyes still closed Say you don't know You watched it burn And then you let it go They changed the rules, they rigged the field Then sold you fear and called it "real" Kids in line waiting to be fed For a living they're learning to beg You laugh it off, you change the tab Turn the news into a tiny jab But every lie you swallow and take to bed Turns into nightmares In somebody else's head Wake up, wake up Stop turning away Wake up, wake up It's here today Eyes still closed Hands still clean You want peace But you run from the scene Eyes still closed Say you don't know You watched it burn And then you f***in let it go How long you gonna sit on your ass? You can wait but it ain't gonna pass They take and take while you play small Then act shocked when the whole thing falls Open up Say it loud Open up Face the crowd Eyes still closed Hands still clean You want peace But you still cower at the scene Eyes still closed Say you don't know You watched it burn And let it go Eyes still closed Now it's on you Eyes still closed What will you do?
