Society Erased

Cataclysmic efforts put forth to destroy society Like a rehabilitated man at the peak of his sobriety Propriety erased from the standard way of life Prolific conversations causing pain and strife Like sacrificial murders, there's a pattern in the system Set out to destroy our economiesnatural rhythm Driven forces sent forth to wipe us out Like a slaughter to the lamb, causing fear and doubt Dubious explanations as to why this motion's made To drain our souls of all comfort like an empty glass of lemonade Just like a game of spades, it only seems we can follow suit But pay close enough attention, we can throw them off and raise dispute We can cripple their defenses as our freedom is embraced We must work to keep life going before society's erased
