How Much Is Enough?

Tell me can the hateful chain be broken??Production and consumption define our hollow lives.?Avarice has led us 'cross the ocean,?Toward a land that's better, much more bountiful and wide.?When will mankind finally come to realize?His surfeit has become his demise??How much is enough to kill yourself??That quantity is known today, as we blow ourselves away.?Tell me is there anything so sure??Rapacity, tenacity, capacity for more!?Like a dog that feeds until he suffers,?The infirmity of man is brough on by his selfish cure.?When will mankind finally come to realize?His surfeit has become his demise??How much is enough to kill yourself??That quantity is known today, as we blow ourselves away. When? I've seen a lot of things in five years.?I struggle just to hold back the tears.?But everyfuckingwhere I go,?I see the pathos that I know?Will spell the termination of us all.?Someone's got to tell me, do you see?That everything around you has a hidden tragedy??Seeds of happiness have never?Found a place to grow,?And our generation doesn't know.?When, when will you try?To change the logarithmic face of kissing things goodbye??When, when will you know?That human life is so short and death is oh so slow??I've tried to make things make sense but I can't.?I'm happy just to watch them all and laugh.?And if you think you've got it made,?Just revel in your selfish ways,?'Cuz when the world stops turning so will you!
