EMO / Midwest Sounds #3

They said evolution had a plan
But I’ve seen the wings on garbage cans
When the lights cut out, I swear they rise
Little prophets with compound eyes

We built towers, they built nests
Outlived plagues and failed the tests

Who made cockroaches fly?
Who gave nightmares the sky?
Did God just laugh or cry
When He saw ‘em lift off, saw ‘em lift off tonight?

Science said “adapt or die,”
But some things never even try
They crawl through wars, they drink our lies
And wear apocalypse like a cheap disguise

We drop bombs, they just survive
Mocking every genius alive

Who made cockroaches fly?
Who turned the gutters divine?
It’s evolution’s cruel punchline
When the filth learns how to climb

We burn the world, they fan the flame
No guilt, no god, no shame
Maybe they’re angels in disguise
Or just reminders we’re the flies

We drop bombs, they just survive
Mocking every genius alive

Who made cockroaches fly?
Who turned the gutters divine?
It’s evolution’s cruel punchline
When the filth learns how to climb

Who made cockroaches fly?
Maybe same one who made you and I
When the roaches inherit the light
They’ll write songs about our flight
