Meta for the Metaphor - What Have We Done?

Who needs competence when there's no consequence?
Nobody makes a sound
Who's the archetype to live up to the hype?
The one never crowned
And it is true that I am here

There's an apathy for what is happening
For all that's never changed
We keep the institute between every dispute
It makes us seem deranged
And it is true that I am here and I am gone

I have left it all to you
What can you do to lead us on?
Tell me what will keep us safe?
Are we out of place?

Sediment sets: the cause from the erosion
And those in the deep end, they just say to stick your toes in
They'll never question for their daughters or their sons and ask

"What have we done?"
What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?

Betrayed our ideals, removed from the real
It's how we lose our hope
We crave hostility. It's truly a pity
It's how we learn to cope
And it is true that I am here and I am gone

I have left it all to you
What can you do to lead us on?
Tell me what will keep us safe?
Are we out of place?

Sediment sets: the cause from the erosion
And those in the deep end, they just say stick your toes in
They'll never question for their daughters or their sons and ask

"What have we done?"
What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?

Sediment sets: the cause from the erosion
And those in the deep end, they just say stick your toes in
They'll never question for their daughters or their sons and ask

"What have we done?"
What have we done?
What have we done?
What have we done?
