lyrics

Spending all your moments that pass
Living in an insulated dream
Increments of digital flash
A compulsive pageantry
Dopamine chemistry masks
A malignant disease
Stroking egos dulling a path
To mediocrity

Fattened pigs we line up en masse
A feed monopoly
System babies carry a glass
Of serendipity
The sycophantic wet dream will crash
Like a pyramid scheme
And everything underneath the veil
Was really just a product
Of...

Blind luck
The gallows pole
The gold you struck
A lonely noose

Seduce the lion
Bruise the vantage
Bemuse a fire
Rip the bandage

Spending all your moments that pass
Living in an insulated dream
Increments of digital flash
A compulsive pageantry
Dopamine chemistry masks
A malignant disease
Stroking egos dulling a path
To mediocrity
