How Did It Get This Way

Описание: Woke to another headline carved in stone
Someone laughing while another stands alone
Every promise traded for a sharper lie
Every quiet truth just left to dry

I keep counting cracks along the floor
Trying to remember what we were before

How did it get this way, tell me who we became
Every hand reaching out just passing the blame
I see strangers burn bridges just to feel tall
How did it get this way at all

Kids grow cold learning hatred like a game
Friends turn ghosts when a rumor drops a name
Kindness buried under louder screams
Broken trust sold cheap in silver dreams

I hear silence louder than before
Like the world forgot what hearts are for

How did it get this way, tell me who we became
Every word like a blade dressed up as a claim
People trading souls for a moment of control
How did it get this way, who took the whole

I don't want perfection, just a softer place
Where mercy isn't weakness written on a face
But the crowd keeps pushing, chasing darker ends
Turning every stranger into enemies or trends

Maybe I am wrong… maybe I just see too much
Maybe every scar came from a careless touch

How did it get this way, was it always the same
Or did we slowly fade while feeding the flame
If there's a reason buried under all this gray
I'm still searching for a better day
