Doing nothing will get you nowhere...
Apathy is death
Just sitting there
In the dark
Wailing in your own filth
Sleeping in your blood
Salty tears
Like a mask against your skin
Scars and muck
Loitering your body
Your eyes are glassy
You are dead inside
A darkness overcomes your mind
Light has left your side
Anger, hatred
Fear and pain
From these you cannot hide
But the world
It cannot know
Apathy is death
But it’s the only way
Apathy is death
So you’ll die another day
Take charge of your life
Burn the veil of hate and lies
Let love take you by the hand
Let joy trample anger in your stead
Apathy is death
It is so, after all
Apathy is death
But death, it be no more
