Mindless consumption
ever consuming our freedoms
our minds
they are die cast by "reality" (tv)
pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

lock you up
  dare to speak?
    eat this.
  now that's better.
  be a good little American.

go to school
grad school
PhD
climb
higher
higher!

        ignore the music
meet the deadline.
pretty color coated contracts
containing souls
secrets
loopholes for those who can afford them.

but here,
  we just smoke cigarettes
  and eat welfare
all at low prices!
broken minds
              cars
                hearts.
