Catastrophe from Ecosteria by Lucid Nation

Catastrophe

Waiting around for the next disaster
waiting for some kind of catastrophe
all we chase after is disaster
it's like we have some kind of need
for the gruesome worst of us
for the morose worst of us
anything bad that we remember
but anything good well
that's just a passing thing

waiting around for the next disaster
waiting around for the next catastrophe
I can see it all now cross the headlines
body parts and blood spraying and
everything we want to see
it's just a sick little need
we've got to see the worst come true
it's like we're wishing for retribution
coming down

it's nothing new nothing new under the sun
nothing new and when all of you are done
can we go on with life itself can we go on
with living in health can we go on
and have something better than
the next horror or the next disaster
I wonder if we could stand a day
wonder if we could take it for an hour
look for the good you'll always find the worst
you're a piece of work
you're just quite a piece of work
