This World by Border Patrol Lyrics

Traffic’s backed up seven miles
Outbound flights are all delayed
Scavenge food from grocery aisles
Only skylines give us shade

Radiation from our cell phones
lesions growing in our lungs
prizes we were promised
once we made it to this rung

I’ve got booze to shred my liver
I’ve got pills to fix my brain
Trash is boiling in the river
And there’s acid in the rain
We deserve whatever’s coming
It’s foundation that we’ve laid
We won’t survive this world we’ve made

Shrinking forest set ablaze
filthy ocean fraught with oil
hope there’s sunshine through the haze
shuffle off this mortal coil
Melting icecaps in the Arctic
rising shorelines all around
We medicated masses
have grown too deaf to the sound

I’ve got booze to shred my liver
I’ve got pills to fix my brain
Trash is boiling in the river
And there’s acid in the rain
We deserve whatever’s coming
It’s foundation that we’ve laid
We won’t survive this world we’ve made

It doesn’t have to be like this
we’ve gotta break pace with the herd
realize we don’t write the rules
we are not nature’s last word

I’ve got booze to shred my liver
I’ve got pills to fix my brain
Trash is boiling in the river
And there’s acid in the rain
We deserve whatever’s coming
It’s foundation that we’ve laid
We won’t survive this world we’ve made
