Where does hyper-individualism lead that has everybody chase their 15 minutes of fame? When everybody is special, no-one is special. The privileged callousness paving the way to this conclusion is harrowing.

lyrics

Disgusting seeds
from a rotten tree
Our lack of concern is appalling
Selfish breed
brought up with greed
Our lack of concern is appalling

When everybody is special
No one is special
Self-absorbed noblesse
Decadent abscess
Our privileged ignorance is disgraceful
How can I care less
While we morally regress?
Our privileged indifference is disgraceful
When everybody is special
No one is special
There is no multitude of I
Yet it is the law that we abide
There is no multitude of I
Yet it is the law that we abide

This hell we’ve built
Collective guilt
We can’t afford to be neutral no more
Compensation billed
Debt unfulfilled
We can’t afford to be neutral no more
When everybody is special
No one is special
There is no multitude of I
Yet it is the law that we abide
There is no multitude of I
Yet it is the law that we abide
When everybody is special
No one is special
