A song about how the blandness of modern culture has led people towards a tribal mentality, and not always for the better. I used some rapped vocals as a rhythmic contrast to the singing (as used by various early 2000s bands). It needs a bit of remixing but I think it came out well.
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Words run rings - through your head in this modern existence
Don't accomplish anything - over-analysing leaves you senseless
You struggle to fit in - to a world where you have no culture
So you change yourself for them - and in a while you are prey to the vultures
Chorus:
Look around you now
What are you doing
Your head is in the clouds
Nothing can touch you now
Drastic actions
Desperate measures
To fill the emptiness within
The emptiness within
Verse 2:
How they tried - to give you the life they never had
The world lied - yet you wonder why you feel so bad
So you look for an escape - where you can live out your heart's desire
To a place that you call safe - out of the frying pan, into the fire
Repeat Chorus
