lyrics

TECH BROS

the only thing we seem to know
we have embodied and it shows
I got my dreams cut out for me
they got us covered, can’t you see

I saw you had it all figured out
I think I thought of this thing first
then you said: we truly had something special

the writing’s on the wall
they got us figured out

the only thing they let you fight
is your self-loathing late at night
use an example to regain
(projecting the most profitable pain)

they got my fears cut out for me
they got us covered, easily

indifference

I saw you, you seemed to have it figured out (did you really)
and I think I thought of this thing first (I am no different)
then you said: we truly had something special

the writing’s on the wall
they got us figured out

as long as there are others like us
now why would you
even keep us around

surveillance state

the only thing we seem to know
we have embodied and it shows
they got my dreams cut out for me
they got us covered, can’t you see

indifference

I saw you, you finally had it figured out
(did you really?)
and I think I thought of this thought first
(go figure me out)
when will we amount to anything forever?

oh sweet community
of cropped commodity
please won’t you shut me out

SHIT SHOW

you’re leaving
believe me
you’re leaving
believe me

here we go
your one man show
turns out to be
quite boring

my mind is racing
you keep evading
from all the corners
you paint yourself in
you can explain it

your face needs saving
your gaps keep spacing s p a c i n g
with every inch you gain,
we run a block
no white flags waving

so you’re losing,
it is so self-evident
your time is almost spent

and here you go
your shit show
turns out to be
incredible

is it erased yet?
let’s clean this palate
I can still taste it
want not, waste it
we will never forget

when would you say
did you think
you were ever winning?
you’re just spinning,
keep on spinning,
end to begin
and when you fall
is how it shows
how power grows

you rigged the polygraph
somebody did the math
it goes around

you’re serving just you
you’re so so see-through
what goes around
can cut you
can cut you
can cut you
can cut you off
can cut you off

and here you go
your shit show
turns out to be
Incredible

rigging the polygraph
somebody did the math

and now it shows
your power blows
oh man you’re so incredible
