Apathy and desolation
It swirls
In their eyes
To the morbid beat of annihilation
Boys and girls
They're ready to die
They dance
Like it’s the end of the world
Where have
The parents gone?
As the bodies pile
And evil spawns
Born to a world
Desensitized
Boys and girls
Believe the lies
As the lights flash
And hips gyrate
Dreams are dashed
While morals vacate
He’s on X
She shoots dope
Hate, violence, sex
All loss of hope
Designer jeans
On amphetamines
Popularity fiends
Crowding the scene
Blood spills
Adrenaline pumps
Rush of the kill
Pervades this dump
Razor blades and gas mask
Are the radical fashion
In this radiation we bask
Heightening this deadly passion
It’s what they crave
Boys and girls
At the apocalyptic rave
Dance like it’s the end of the world
