Look Closer
[We are intent only on our own gain]
Tune in and avert your eyes to the black telescreen
They're watching you sleep
Telling you to eat what could be soylent green
They're watching you sleep
Telling you to eat what could be soylent green
Now look away and go back to bed
They will get what they need
When we sleep, work and play
When we consume and obey
They will get what they need
When we sleep, work and play
When we consume and obey
'Cause we are all born in to a controlled mindset
Godmoney makes a death threat on ethics
Governed by greed and a stale routine
Can we just justify the means if we're
Godmoney makes a death threat on ethics
Governed by greed and a stale routine
Can we just justify the means if we're
Plugged in, tuned out?
We all need to wake up because we've been
Detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
Shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies, re-sensitize, and look closer
We all need to wake up because we've been
Detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
Shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies, re-sensitize, and look closer
Get schooled! Get married! Get it on!
Start a family! Hurry, move along!
You may start to think, make a different move
Lose your only mind that you've never used anyway
Start a family! Hurry, move along!
You may start to think, make a different move
Lose your only mind that you've never used anyway
Walk on the white line, brainwashed
Walk on the same side, brain dead
It's secure and safe like you need it all to be
Walk on the same side, brain dead
It's secure and safe like you need it all to be
Plugged in, tuned out?
We all need to wake up because we've been
detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies, re-sensitize, and look closer
We all need to wake up because we've been
detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies, re-sensitize, and look closer
And look closer in
(They live) Wide awake, fully aware
(We Sleep) On a quest to find out where
(They live) The dream turned into a scare
(We Sleep) A fascinating new nightmare
(They live) Wide awake, fully aware
(We Sleep) On a quest to find out where
(They live) The dream turned into a scare
(We Sleep) A fascinating new nightmare
Walk on the white line, brainwashed
Walk on the same side, brain dead
It's secure and safe like you need it all...
Walk on the same side, brain dead
It's secure and safe like you need it all...
[They want benign complacency ]
This is where we start to look closer
This is where we start to look closer
Plugged in, tuned out?
Wake up [x2]
Wake up [x2]
Plugged in, tuned out?
We all need to wake up because we've been
detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies, re-sensitize, and look closer
Now-now look closer
We all need to wake up because we've been
detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies, re-sensitize, and look closer
Now-now look closer
