Worship the screen Cocksucker lies There’s a stream of middle-class hypocrisy tonight Every time we beg for the rich man to provide There’s countries to be conquered People to divide Oh cruel darkness, want you to embrace me It’s a fucked up world and it’s driving my poor heart crazy We’re all sleepwalking The American Dream In a loop of building the cage and burying the keys There’s only good and bad, there’s nowhere in between Everybody loves to judge Everybody thinks they’re clean Oh cruel darkness, want you to embrace me It’s a fucked up world and it’s driving my poor heart crazy
