It's difficult to write a song against A new paradigm of selfishness When I know that it will never change It seems that the law of entropy Has found a home in our morality So let's imagine a world based off of instinct It's every man for himself No more handouts No more second chances All will hail Pleasure exalted Progression forever halted By the hands of our selfish nature By the hands of our selfish nature We would all be living in caves We would all be living in caves Anyone can show hatred But it takes a man to ignore his instincts Anyone can show hatred But it takes a man to ignore his instincts It takes many men to build a home But only a boy and a match to burn it down My God, brotherhood, and heavy music These are the only things real to me My God, brotherhood, and heavy music These are the only things real to me Anyone can show hatred But it takes a man to ignore his instincts
