The Forgotten Ones Lyrics

Connected

And wireless

Losing touch with reality

Consuming

And tireless

We forget how we're meant to live

Satiated

Yet moneyless

Reduced to modern slaves

So brainwashed

So clueless

We never even see the chains

We proudly wave the flag

Of civilized society

But still we turn our backs

To the ones

On their knees

Never enough

We are all flesh and blood under the sun

What about love

So many places on earth

Where they live forsaken

The forgotten ones

They're human

Just like us

They're born, they dream, they die

Out of sight

They wither

We never even hear the cries

Indulging in excess

We live like it's the end of days

They hold out empty hands

They're far away

Alone and helpless

Never enough

We are all flesh and blood under the sun

What about love

So many places on earth

Where they live forsaken

The forgotten ones

Blinded by inherent greed

We want all we can take

We can share with those in need

But we never change
