how many rely on the soundbite
to get their daily news
where they try and disguise all of the lies
to pass them off as living proof

a snippet here, snippet there
leaves us unaware
exactly what is going on
in this crazy world out here

so busy staying dizzy in our own lives
to even know what's going on
to where we find we never take the time
to check if it's right all on our own

we let the soundbite do its maneuvering
to what they think we indeed have a need to know
to stir up some trouble inside of our bubbles
in these lives where we think we have somewhere to be,
or at least somewhere to go
