Growing up subjected to completely broken parenting methods

Thinking you were special, given participation medals

Thrown into the real world and quickly realise that you're not fucking special and were told a pack of lies

Life is war, life is pain

Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line

Desire to be free, complete catastrophe, living in agony

Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line

Easily affected, discontented, Machine Dependent

I can feel the fear inside your head, you're in a state of constant dread

Eyes are blinded by the blue light, walking around like the undead

But still you want more, such a desperate need to boost the credit score

Where's the social approval that you're looking for?

Life is war, life is pain

Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line

Desire to be free, complete catastrophe, living in agony

Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line

Easily affected, discontented, Machine Dependent

Constant engagement with your comforting machine

Temporary relief fuelled by hits of dopamine

An angry voice inside that is screaming at you

That you're a fucking loser, this you'll never get through

On the outside just fine, inside your dying, aching feeling within

Each time you're feeling the state of disconcertion

Temporarily relieve your symptoms

Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line

Desire to be free, complete catastrophe, living in agony

Tension rising high, your health is in decline, your futures on the line

Easily affected, discontented, Machine Dependent
