Anxious stepsâevery day through the halls ofâlearning She´s watchingâevery corner,âshe´sâpraying forâa warning She´s justâa child ofâeightâyears old already scaredâtoâdie
Ourânerves are cobwebbedâwithâthe dustâof atrocity The deadlyâdaily spectacleâerodesâhumanity Jaded and desensitized, aâspreadingâapathy Fast forgottenâthoughtsâandâprayers for numbersâonâa screen (Forânumbersâonâaâscreen)
Anotherâmassacre,âanotherâday gone by Isâthisâtheânew abnormal? Pursuingâillusionsâas weâturn a blind eye This is the new abnormal
Anguished steps through the ashes of a blackened plain
He used to walk the jungle there in perfect harmony He´s an old man of eighty years, last of a different world Progress has wiped his people out, they never will return
Out of sight, out of our minds, four thousand miles away Our willful ignorance will turn this home into a grave The air is getting thinner, our lungs are set ablaze We´ve consumed ourselves to death, catastrophe (More numbers on a screen)
Another massacre, another day gone by Is this the new abnormal?
Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye This is the new abnormal
Slip so easily into dull indifference When horror has been normalized, a cynical defense But I can´t sit there silently and watch it all go by The strongest hearts will raise their voice against the murderous tide (No!) No! It can´t go on like this Millions of voices echo in the darkness, screaming No! (No!) I won´t accept this The faint of heart will fall in line but I will not submit
Another massacre, another day gone by
Is this the new abnormal? Pursuing illusions as we turn a blind eye This is the new abnormal
