lyrics

Who's standards are we living by?
We're fooled into what we know as security
We're given the formula to prosperity

They drew us a map
But yet we're all dropping like flies
Its the formula to misery
We're spoon fed our purpose
Masked in lies and a false prophecy

I've always known there's no life after death
So a purpose seems pretentious
I'm left on this planet looking for something to do
And I refuse to treat my life as a pass time
working the 9-5, believing that all I'm good for is having kids, buying a house and waiting to die.

My thoughts are like a blinding light
It's too much to process
But this system is the key to emptiness

So I'll make my purpose
I'll play by my rules

Don't be misled into that hollowed longing,
Or you'll catch yourself thinking "why?"
Don't be misled into that hollowed longing,
Or you'll catch yourself thinking "it's not enough"
