Lyrics
Shotgun surgery administered with a sense of desperate urgency
This is a quickening so sickening it’s a state of emergency
We are concurrently locked in an information age overload
Access to the vastness gives traction to attack mode
Battle royale of morality, mentality now holier than thou
It’s a quandary comprised of dirty laundry we cannot disavow
We are the sum of our victories and our shortcomings
Hopefully you can learn something from it
Before you are called out and your life plummets
The court of public opinion is carrying on the tradition
Of thinning the herd like blurred lines in attendance
For some theater of the absurd
Cash in hand, targets are in demand for collective reprimand
Pick some name then hit ‘em with the Hunger Games
Should they choose to take a stand
Seems to me like we’ll all have a turn on the chopping block
Where they take stock of your shared thoughts
Through a retroactive lens like haves have never been
In the have-not position feeling inefficient
When they aren’t feeling mostly indifferent
To the fact the artifacts they leave around
Will cut them down to size by surprise like
Universal Monsters Imposters in the crosshairs
Staring right down the barrel of righteous indignation
No collective awakening in the making the way we’re breaking bad Imprisonment of sentiments with a definition made ironclad
Someone’s gonna hear exactly what you say in the wrong way
And there’s no chance for retribution or a stay of execution
Antithesis of a love movement founded on the basis
Of personal amusement dims the lumens
That we once found in humans
