The Stars Went Out On Earth

Ziggy left the other day and ended all his pain
The rest of us are left on an Earth that has gone insane
Trump is spreading hate and people are buying in
Nazi Germany is starting all over again
What the fuck is wrong with people hurting one another
Why am I always feeling smothered
No one these days can get along, always looking out for self
Living for personal gain like there is no one else
Politicians are all corrupt so why should I even vote
They all look out for billionaires and not the common bloke
The poor continue to stay poor because of their greed
Billions of people never getting what they need
Starving, suffering, dying all because of the elite
Begging for the day, that us and God meet

The stars went out on Earth
Darkness consumes us all
Birth has been our curse
Even farther we fall
Why were we even put here to experience this pain
And then the rich tell us all we're the ones who are insane

Money spent on wars could feed all of the poor
Am I the only one who thinks we all deserve so much more
Working ourselves to death is not the purpose of life
You still end up with nothing but a pile of debt and a wife
Beauty lines are drawn that exclude the common form
Real beauty lies beyond that in the common norm

All that they tell you is lies
Pay attention to what you see with you own eyes
Can your ears hear the common man's cries
Look into your heart and see what you really despise
As your future dies

The stars went out on Earth
Greed consumes us all
Life's become a curse
Even farther we fall
Why were we put here to experience this ruse
The rich tell us the problem is you
