it's a zero sum game for the average joe
who gets by on what he thinks he needs to know
unaware the fourth estate's been bought and sold
and corporate interests influence what he's been told
kept in the dark with lack of knowledge
sociopaths driven by profit
they want to keep us deaf, dumb and blind
keep us sick, tired and depressed
so no one looks behind the scenes
to find a select few are profiting
from our collective misery
our complacency has made us complicit
we fell through the rabbit hole into this existence
where the only (accepted) way to stay safe is to kill everyone else
while back at home we cannibalize ourselves
i can't, i won't, i refuse to fuel a machine that will be my downfall
