Demoralized

The morality of it all
This is where our Nation begins to fall
The fabric begins to rip
In the tightening of their grip

Everything is right
And nothing is wrong
As we all lose sight
And suddenly we’re not so strong

We’re quick to condemn
But then we follow them
Everyone in a basket
With no one willing to admit

Look around
It’s so close to you
And they’re gaining ground
Infecting all like the flu
