lyrics
Modern society, spinning and confused
In capitalism's chokehold, lied to and abused
Popular media reinforces that politicians hold our fate
Expected to pick through whatever bullshit they serve us on a plate
Most people aren't aware of it
Live a whole life just to sleep through it
Spoon-fed hapless drones stumble obediently into nowhere
Convinced of their ineffectiveness, convinced the rich will play fair
Just swimming around in shit
Can't seem to get enough of it
Fuck
What's your life for? Why are you even here?
To line someone else's pockets while you hide in doubt and fear?
Why aren't you sick of it?
Why aren't you sick of it?
Home from work, sinking into escapes
Just to do it all again, every worthless fucking day
We're being controlled in every facet of our lives
Subtly, subliminally, letting someone else decide
Why aren't you sick of it?
Why aren't you sick of it?
