Apathy Clean Full Version by El Has Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2022

Why does no-one care?
It's like nobody gives a damn
Especially at this point in time
"You alright?"
Yeah, uh... Don’t use that one...
"El? You alright?"
Uh, yep, I'm fine

I can see ... everywhere
I can see apathy everywhere

Y'know what I think humanity’s greatest flaw is?
It's that, apathy
'cause wherever I go there are people who don't care
And that's what's killing us everywhere
The only way to fix this is to start giving a damn
Or everyone you know is gonna die

But how do we go about doing this?
Well, let's find out!
The first thing you might notice
If you reset your perception
Is just how slow things happen
Because of vast amounts of dawdling
We all need to practice
Whatever it is we need to
But particularly now there's not enough time
’cause practice always starts very slowly

I know about apathy
I don’t care about it though
The people who suffer it most
Always end up in charge
We need to fix that
Or else they're gonna kill us all
Whether they want to or not
We absolutely must not let them get away ...with that
No!!
"It’s a mixture of apathy and conspiracy that's made COVID the excuse to kill people over bits of paper."

Why should I care?
This doesn't need to be important

[Section asking why, which is missing from single version]

COVID-19 isn't what is going to kill us all
That role goes to numbers in a computer somewhere
Stop making me repeat myself
Just try and listen for a change
The world is ending and you don’t care
We need do deal with our apathy
[Collapse that's missing from single version]

AAARRGHH!! THAT'S IT!!
I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS!!

When confronted with our greatest flaw
Most of us don't see what it is
I have managed to get the seeing part down
But fixing it is another thing and I just don't care
I wonder why that is
How do I even explain this?
You think COVID-19's what's killing you
I'm so sick of everything
And I don't know how most of it even works

Priorities make no goddamn sense
Why's what Magic Sky Man said more important than virology
And why do so many people even care anymore?
It's never been important 'cause he doesn't bloody exist
And if you still believe in him that's fine, technically
But you don't have to get so offended when science gets involved

[Section about Drake and a volcano that's missing from the single version]
I already warned you idiots, but you didn't care!!
Your apathy towards your own lives is ending the human race!
"No-one cares, no-one cares," I hear that all the time
Why do you think COVID-19 has the become to excuse to regress 800 years
& turn everyone into goddamn serfs?
Why are they trying to convince us that doing so will make us happy?

How d'you suppose we lose our stuff?
Cops coming round and taking it?
I don't think that's how it'll work
The method will be even stranger
Random patterns of electrons
Also known as The Trust Framework
But come on, that's not gonna work...!
...right? Right??
Oh noooooOOOOOO!!!

Screw you!!
Try to care!!
We're all going to die!!
Just 'cause you haven't finished that game
Doesn't mean you can let your friends die!!
Don't put your frigging mask on!
You're a slave to people who only THINK they're in charge!!
Why are they still alive?!!??

Why's everyone a bystander?
You have limbs! Why don't you use them!!?
Still you wonder why so many people want you dead!!
Humans don't all act the same way for the same reasons!
I've had enough of this!
It's time... to fight back now!!

Only get involved if it actually affects you
Why does that apply here?
Well, this determines how you die
Stop ignoring everything that's important
The apathy of humanity is what will end up wiping it out
