Verse 1
Awake with sleeping minds

And blinded eyes
Morality twisted
With souls shredded
Falling victim
To our own damn lies
Conformist nonsense
In our souls embedded
Thanks to government kool aid
Forced down our throats
So that the truth
To us is never known
As we take our pain out
On each other
With not a care
For the truth
Ever elusive
We are nothing now
But fucking toxic
With nothing to show for it

Chorus
Keeping us sleeping
While selling us dreams
Laced with hate and fear
So that we let their power
Always be there
Only pretending to care
Knowing none of it is fair
They laugh at us
Killing each other
Over how we think we got here

Verse 2
Banning books
While blaming
Groups of people

For everything wrong
In a country

That is supposedly free
Where have we heard that before
Should have known better
To let it get even

Remotely this far
But damn that kool aid

Loving its taste
Trusting it to show the way

This game we
Decide to play
As even those in charge
Are being played
Like the puppets they are

For the evil truly in charge here

Chorus
