Rock Bottom Lyrics

There's a problem on Main Street

Everybody knows

We don't give it priority

On and on that problem goes

It's the problem with society

All our values erode

When love can't save the family

There's nowhere else to go

Oh, we've hit rock bottom

Lord, I hope

There's a problem in the schoolyard

The swings don't swing no more

All the schools are on lockdown

And there's someone in the halls

The police are on standby

Until the orders come

The children need saving

But the saving never comes

Oh, we've hit rock bottom

Lord, I hope

There's a problem at the doctor's

Everybody's ill

The cure has gotten easy

A pocket full of pills

The Narcan's given freely

And yes, it saves a few

But by 2 a.m. the next day

It's Narcan 22

Oh, we've hit rock bottom

Lord, I hope

There's a situation overseas

Where the bombs freely fall

Sanctioned by a government

About to lose it all

As the people lose their faith

In the sentences of man

Who extinguishes a whole race

To achieve his master plan

Oh, we've hit rock bottom

Lord, I hope

There's a problem in some of us

The others do not know

Torturous in every way

Until that final blow

It's exacerbated by the pain

Shoved down our throats

The fake bliss we see every day

Never truly shows

That we've hit rock bottom

Lord, I hope

There's a problem up in D.C

That's where the money flows

Behind the guise of charity

So the people do not know

We elect the politicians

For what seems like their life

To fix the poor decisions

They're the ones that sign

Oh, we've hit rock bottom

Lord, I hope
