The song Eerie Inhabitants by American Thrash Metal band Testament is about the world going to a horrible direction. And that nothing can bring them out of that direction.
[Verse 1]
A world of chaos
A world of fear
A world of anger and corruption
When all is lost
And millions starve
Is this humanity's destruction?
[Chorus]
Life! A game that people play
Cryout! Will they see another day?
[Verse 2]
No one to help us
The children pray
Nobody listens to their crying
This great depression
When will it end?
To live like this is worse than dying
[Chorus]
Life! A game that people play
Cryout! Will they see another day?
[Verse 3]
Your destiny is over
Your fate has declined
Refuse to discover
What so many could find
Death's endless toil
As I long for rest
Life's now forsaken
Condemned to repress!
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
No sign of heaven
No sign of hell
Just the sign of pain and sorrow
This generation inhabits all
To form an order for tomorrow
[Chorus]
Life! A game that people play
Cryout! Will they see another day?
