Lyrics

Acquiesce, the ending is nigh
You wanna turn a blinded eye
Coddling conscience, immersed in nonsense
That they’ve spoon fed you
Red or blue, black or white
A wolf in sheep’s clothing still bites
Illusion of choices to silence the voices that prick ears to the lies
Rampant shadows crawl on every wall
Shuttered eyes fixated on the gates you built so tall
One more slip and they’ll be there to break your fall
Plastic autonomy bending the rules
Attention fixated on jesters and fools
We are policing ourselves
We are policing ourselves
Pan up the pyrite and puff out your chest
Killing each other and scorning the rest
We are policing ourselves
We are policing ourselves
Tell me, are you not afraid of your own cage?
Neatly kept and tightly locked with no escape
Abiding by the rules they laid in place
Don’t forget to kindly say please and thanks
And are we so thick?
Has the lye soaked so deep that it washed away all of our wits
We’re more than what the television says
We are worth more than money to make
We are worth more than numbers to break
We are worth more than 40 hour weeks
We are worth more than gods and machines
We are worth more than borders and states
But to them, that’s all we’ll ever be
I can’t sleep at night
I'm writhing in my skin
Can’t sleep won’t sleep
Don’t know where to begin
I know that something’s better than
Neatly kept and tightly locked
With no escape
No escape
