From Sorrow to Serenity - Golden Age lyrics

We live in a time where morality does not exist We trade our broken souls for temporary comfort Desiring everything we don’t deserve So we’re cutting corners, making numbers, calling it survival Delusion of evil, nothing can change us now Servants to pure greed, hoping we don’t go to hell Take a good look at our past and realise we have not changed Corruption is rampant, this was meant to be our golden age Human nature is unquestionably spiteful We’d rather take and k** than care for one another Convinced that this is all that life consists of We fall back into the fold and watch our world burn It’s burning for us Our lives are a lie Nothing will change We once had hope that we could be a better species Temptation spreads in the way of a sick disease Only the few can hope to overcome the illness Gradually it shall thrive and consume us all We are tainted Only we have the strength to admit that we’re lost in a false and adverse state of mind Intertwined where we try to subside all the crimes we decide that are right and a benefit to mankind We just want to live out our lives This destructive path that we walk Only leads to our end Should we turn away We will never look back
