Sleep It Off Lyrics

Dejected concrete jungles
That never seem to end
Through complex tower structures
Aimlessly they transcend
Over forgotten ghettos
They won't show on maps
Inequal distribution of wealth
Coincidental perhaps?

I tried to make my connection
In a world that shows no affection
America's busy sleeping

I saw divisions
In our undivided land
With power unforgiving
Fueled by greed it can't withstand
It's self-inflicted dreams of hope
Laughing in our faces
Getting fixed w/ it's own dope
Sponsored by class races

I tried to make my connection In a world that shows no affection
America's busy sleeping

Sleep it off
Everything will go away
-Sleep it off again-
Shop till you drop
And everything will be okay
-Sleep it off again-
Party till you puke in your comfortable houses
-Sleep it off again-
The streets are paved with the negligence of thousands
Sleep it off again

Looked into desperate eyes
Unfulfilled abandoned lives
Heartless city after city
Of a common man in a not so
Promising land
With very narrow means
To urgent human needs
