Would You Be Impressed?
Toh Kay Lyrics

Would you be upset if I told you we were dying?
Do you want to know the truth? We're all going to die soon.

And every cure they gave us was a lie?
None of the remedies the experts gave us actually work.

Oh! They mean it when they say we're dead and doomed
The warning about our impending death is not a joke or exaggeration.

And every single symptom brings us closer to the tomb
The signs of sickness we experience indicate that we're nearing the end of our lives.

And who will take the credit for our swift impending fall
Who will be blamed for our impending doom?

Because it's not my fault
I'm not responsible for this disaster.

Would you be impressed if I said that the dead would help us counting
Would you be surprised if I told you that we're wasting time on useless activities?

Every single moment that we waste our time?
We fritter away every opportunity to address our problems.

All the time we're spending vaccinating this disease
All the time we spend on vaccines is worthless if we don't deal with the root problem.

I just get dizzy when I think of all the ways we try to hide our maladies
I feel disoriented when I consider how we're trying to conceal our afflictions.

We wine (we wine), we dine (we dine), and everything is fine
We pretend everything is alright while we gorge ourselves on luxury.

Because it's not my fault
I'm not responsible for the mess we're in.

Now you're upset because you finally got the notion
Now that you've realized what's going on, you're getting agitated.

That everything you had is spinning down the drain
Everything you value is rapidly disintegrating and it's out of your control.

Oh! Do you mean it when you beg and pray and plead?
Do you truly understand the gravity of the situation?

Your "Giveittomegiveittomegiveittomegiveittome all those things we need"
Your desperate pleas for assistance won't help you or anybody else.

And what, pray tell, will you whimper when your number will be called
What will you say when it's your turn to face the consequences?

You'll say "It's not my fault"
You'll refuse to accept responsibility for your role in this disaster.

Go! Now! The others they'll await you
Go now, you're not alone, others are waiting for you.

And every single one among the lot of you will have your turn
Eventually, everyone will have to face the consequences of their actions.

Ai Ai Ai Oh Oh OH
An expression of frustration or sadness.

Like moths that fly into the flame it always ends up so
We are drawn to our own destruction like moths to a flame.

You scream: "Not me! Take anybody else!
You'll protest and beg for someone else to take your place.

Because it's not my fault!"
Because you're sure it's not your fault.

I had a dream last night where everyone was trying
I had a dream where everyone was struggling to survive.

Subconsciously I knew it was a lie
Deep down, I knew that things weren't going to get better.

And when I woke I knew it was time to pray
When I woke up, I realized that I need to make amends before it's too late.

To make amends before the end, before my judgment day
I must reconcile with others before I meet my inevitable fate.

I looked around, I stood alone, I knew what I had to say
I surveyed my surroundings and realized that I must confess my fault alone.

I said "It's all my fault"
I took responsibility for my role in the disaster.
