We are all lost
People fancy faith over reason
Lies are tied up with pretty, little ribbons
Bloodlust is a common acceptance
And the number of masks people hide behind is growing
Everybody wants to be someone else
I’m a part of a well medicated society
Exposed to violent crimes all over the TV
I’m only in my twenties
And I’ve searched for a swan song to exit on
It takes a fucked up mind to think about dying
It takes a fucked up mind to think about dying already
I wish people cared more about the world
than who they think created it.
Fuck the world; let me be, who I want to be
I may have trouble tripping over my own feet
but let me be, who I want to be.
I have wanted to write song like this for a while now. Something a little political. The people of earth get bombarded with horrible crimes all over the news. Medication seems to be the only answer in this day and age. People don't give a fuck. Everyone is led astray and lied to constantly. Politicians play games and don't implement the policies they promised, instead they ruin a lot of things and turn the country upside down.
The premise of this song is really simple. That a person is just force fed all this bullshit to the point where they lose all sense of self. I am this person. And people use religion as the scapegoat. If something goes wrong, they turn to 'god' and beg for forgiveness or whatever. As a society we are told what to wear, where to eat, what car to drive, and to remain on high alert due to a dumb as fuck, fucking cult of dickheads who think killing people will give them eternal salvation. Seriously what the fuck is wrong with people? Blood has been spilled for far to long because of religion.
I am starting to ramble on now, but I don't care.
It annoys me that people don't think for themselves. The media just paints this picture that the world is a dangerous place, when really there is more good than evil. The earth is a beautiful place, people just need to open their jaded, little eyes and open their fucking ears.
