All that I am is a lie
Turned out the monster inside
Put on this plastic face
And embraced
Our selfish human race
Because I can't deny
Speaking out is suicide
If I told you all
What I saw
You'd call me a freak
Well, I think your world reaks
I think your neon cities stink
Think you should take your culture
And shove it back
Up the hole from which it sneaked
But you'll just sit in your box
Content and stroking your *****
It's all you've got
To leave this growing pile
Of garbage to rot
Don't think it'll go away
Don't think my words won't say
Everything tried so hard
To ignore
It's time for truth to reign
Deny you did this to me
Born to your house of puppetry
You pull the strings
Your actions bring
The hate that churns inside of me
Am I talking too fast?
Will my words really last?
Just grab some chinese take-out
In your Benz
And drive off with your friends
Content, not giving a *****
About some foreign kid's luck
To be born into a world
Who's god
Is the almighty buck
A shame we're most lower class
Just here to rape in the *****
Bent over backwards
While you penetrate
With workloads you pass
I stand alone once again
Synical with pad and pen
Ignored rantings from the
Ones you spit
And ***** on again
I think I'm shouting in vain
Think I could drown in this rain
All of the thoughts I think
Spin round my brain
I think I'm going insane
Deny you did this to me
Born to your house of puppetry
You pull the strings
Your actions bring
The hate that churns inside of me

JRB, I've done two or three on this subject but none as good as this.
We have a lot in common. I agree totally with your point of view on this one |

Our society as a hole is just a bunch of people behind masks...well written.... I like it a lot, specially the lines "Just grab some chinese take-out
In your Benz
And drive off with your friends
Content, not giving a *****
About some foreign kid's luck " |
