Disengage
Modern Love Story
Envy
Well it's so sad to see all our good qualities
gradually slipping away and fading
and we better act quick because I'm getting sick
of how much it's becoming degrading
in this age when everything's falling apart
disengage don't think I'm crazy
for not wanting to take part
when morality is defeated
compassion is deleted
all in the name of our desire
and we've got to be blind
or just losing our minds
if we can't see this world's on fire
we've got to disengage
can't you see this age
dragging us down,
down to the ground
we've got to disengage
and I think it's sad that our society's gone mad
possessed by taking more than we need
and our motivation's a sad situation
because it's fueled by anger envy and greed
A boy a girl a love story
but why did it end in misery
taking our chances getting our thrills
taking and taking but never getting our fill
And this is what I see a modern love story
love defined on our TV
telling us teaching us what we need
are we in love or just so alone
that we're looking for anyone to hold
And this is what I see a modern love story
when the prey is caught, the thrill gone
so we'll switch partners and move along
and we won't use our brains
because our lust is too strong
overlooking the person to whom
the body belongs
And this is what I see a modern love story
Constant competition and criticism between friends
we'll bite and fight with our might until we win in the end
I've got one up one you you've got one up on me
overlooking each other's worthy qualities
I'm sorry it's got a hold of me
and I pray I can't shake free
I'll damage my pride, it'll hurt me
so tangled up in ENVY
I lash out at you you strike back at a chance
low blows anything goes at each others expense
We're choosing up teams we're picking up sides
we try to nudge and we won't budge an inch for our pride
I'm sorry it's got a hold of me
and I pray I can't shake free
I'll damage my pride, it'll hurt me
so tangled up in ENVY
Conceit false prestige
same old story hunt for glory
will I ever see humility and will it ever manifest in me
and when the damage's gone, no one won
and that's our idea of fun
Enough
