See the actors on the TV screen Their lying faces make you want to scream Trying to sell you what you do not need Trying to satisfy their endless greed Hear the static on the radio Annoying voices on a pointless show Their lack of taste makes you wince inside Their burning hatred makes you want to hide Though you might not think it’s true There are lots of us who feel like you No need to face it all alone Rejected by society It’s time to find your true family No need to struggle on your own This is the age of the great еmpire A captive world bound with razor wire A placе in time without a history Where people get their values from TV But you’re no dummy, you’re too smart for that You know illusion isn’t where it’s at Though some will question your sanity You’re not afraid to face reality Though many people lead a life untrue It’s not an option for someone like you You couldn’t close your eyes if you tried Your heart is open to the world outside Though you may feel like you’re in Palestine You’d never take the route of Columbine No need to copy acts of violent men Spreading fear and sadness yet again
