lyrics

Intro:
On our newly found plateau
Is there room to grow
Expand our minds
Expand our interests
Go beyond this recess

Verse:
Full bellies are deaf to learning
I wonder how the cogs keep turning
Procrastinate and procreate
Don't try to deviate
You'll listen and obey
Or be shot if you misbehave
This aggression's for your protection
To keep you safe from insurrection
Worship mediocracy
Sacrifice your memories
Don't forget you're part of this disease

Bridge:
Obedience is everlasting
I'll show you

Chorus:
I don't get this
I don't want this
No one needs this
But we're too fucking scared to end it

Verse:
You're too fucking scared to end this
You'd rather be dead for eternity
We waste away to indoctrination
All for instant gratification
Convenience is your god now
Bend your knees and take your vow
We surrender ourselves to blind compliance
To murder those who show defiance
This is not the way the world will grow
Soon enough you'll reap what you will sow

Bridge:
Brainwashing our privilege
Do not exceed recommended dosage
Don't get too attached to life
Or you won't get a chance to
Ubiquitous cult of death
Laugh them off with your last breath
I just want a chance to

Chorus:
I don't get this
I don't want this
No one needs this
But we're too fucking scared to end it
I don't get this
I don't want this
No one needs this
I just want to be myself

Breakdown:
I just want to be myself
(Find a way)
Hagakure
I just want to be myself
Find a way

Chorus:
I don't get this
I don't want this
No one needs this
But we're too fucking scared to end it
