Toxic, mentally draining
Reason, over-exhausting
Fake it, been here before now
Leave it, leave how you're living
I could heed warnings, I could fix all my problems
But someone told me, I should fear nothing but
Complacency's a killer of desire and of dreams
I'll recreate my world in a image you find
Obscene, this lane is taken
Poison, how is that tasting?
You could have voices, you could be such a better whole
But someone told you, you can have it all
Shit you never needed, or knew anything about
Doomed to make you miss the things that aren't yet around
Take all those pretty gems, so you won't feel so bad
Supporting the very system, but you have to it's all you have
Complacency's a killer of desire and of dreams
I'll recreate my world in a image you find
Wont take it, not even when it's
So easy, sit back and relax
They'll say don't worry, she doesn't know the facts
All of your children, they really need to be on
Crack the fucking whip now they're all outta all outta all outta control
Thinking going astray, keep them quiet and keep them still
Feed them invented history, tell them their diagnosis
If that doesn't scare you enough, show them the fucking prognosis
Show them the fucking prognosis
Show them the fucking prognosis
