On a silver platter
Shove it in your face
It has to be quick
It sure won't stick
Departs the human race
Quiet or shout
It's going in then out
Meet your daily needs then leaves
No matter the clout
It's going in then out
Over and over and repeat
Offering your service
Prepare your entire life
Natural selection
From the loudest direction
And the strongest will survive
No more set precedent
No more history books
Overloaded don't know where to look
No more holy grail
No more sacred text
Two minute read then move to the next
Can't see eye to eye
Can't bother to try
Can't discern a fact from a lie
No forest only trees
Can't prevent a war or disease
Quiet or shout
It's going in then out
No matter the clout
It's going in then out
A whisper or a shout
It's going in then out
We saved ourselves and then we forgot
