ALL ELSE FAILED - IN OUR DEFENSE lyrics

For most of us, sedation is wearing off

This hole we dig is just an open grave

So self-absorbed in our own lives that it eclipses the world around us

Daily priorities ...

Work. Sleep. Eat. Breathe

We just don't know any better than to expect the worst

We just ignore

This is a learned defense

What will effect us later, right now won't make a difference

Don't try to explain, I admit it's over my head

Maybe uneducated, maybe just disinterested

We just don't know any better than to accept the worst

I'd walk this line, but I find it is far too thin

I'd share these thoughts, but it's safer to keep them in

History is being made ... We look the other way

We just don't know any better.
