Humans Lost Humanity
Atrocity Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feelings are dead
The world is one machinery
Humans lost humanity
Success dominates
Without regard to casualties
You're one link in a big chain
The individual doesn't count
Profit is more important than a man
People are dying from starvation
On a price policy destroys tons of food
Humans lost humanity
Feeling are dead
The world is one machinery
Humans lost humanity
Success dominates
Without regard to casualties
You're a product of society
Controlled by the stress of working
No love for little children
No care for old peoples
Daily round kills all feelings
Parents maltreat and rape their children
More psychopaths and sexual crimes
Ecocide cause of economic growth
Some people take refuge in drugs
And love is for sale
More weapons for more senseless wars
Some people tough while world suffers
The song "Humans Lost Humanity" by Atrocity depicts a world where people have lost their humanity. The lyrics describe a society where success reigns supreme, and people are reduced to mere links in a large chain of machinery. The focus on success comes at the expense of people's lives, as casualties and profit are more important than the individual. The song highlights the devastating consequences of a system that values success and profit over basic human needs, such as love and care.
The lyrics also highlight the destruction of the environment as a result of economic growth. The price policy destroys tons of food while people are dying from starvation. Moreover, the stress of working and the daily grind of life kills all feelings. The song touches on sensitive topics such as child abuse, neglect of elderly people, rape, and reckless violence. The chorus emphasizes the central theme of the song, pointing out the consequences of such a society where humanity is lost.
