lyrics

Why can't we just admit
We're enamored with
The captors of our state
To say that we invest
in our own Stockholm Syndrome
would undermine the weight
Of how we hold the hand of oppression
With a smile on our face
We're on a leisurely stroll
Into the belly of the beast
Stand
'till they all fall down
Until they all fall down
They have poisoned the garden
Polluting air carbons
The water's not safe to drink
While they procure record profits
They work us like puppets
We cede and assimilate
We won't need this abundance
Of marginal substance
When unchained from restraints
There is value in sedition
When we begin to question
Those who subvert our rights
Expose their true intention
Don't be complicit in corruption
When power and greed unite
Dissent must ignite
Incite a protest call for justice
Fight the elite and alt-right
Let them hear you scream
Esprit de corps
We need to stand together
Until they all fall down
There are fat cats on the hill
Kneading the bleeding
And no one wants to touch them
They want us polarized
To turn blind eye
But now's the time to join and stand together
Know this:
Silence that breeds
Will one day bite the hand that feeds
