Lyrics

VERSE 1:
Is it the modern dream?
The lies we scream?
Our part in the machine?
Keep us down- wear the frown- the smiles that lie
while children die.
So turn away- no Hell to pay
Put your faith in the stars- keep listening for invaders from Mars

ACHEIVE- believe
acheive- BELIEVE
in nothing.
Play society?s game.
Where will we place the blame?
Can you say the name?
Receive the flame- Fame- the wild and the tame-
it?s all the same.
Saved by zero- or crazed like Nero- here?s the Hero
Time to tear him down- to the ground- take his crown
No better than the life you?ve found
y?know, ?What comes around??

CHORUS 1:
Can you see it?
Gaze into the structure of it all- open up your mind.
Can you feel it?
Can you feel the emptiness and all the ties that bind?

VERSE 2:
Where will we start?
Tear it all apart.
Number one on the Chart- stake through the heart- Art.
This modern world- y?know- It?s a fancy show-
Blow by blow- undertoe- woe- all around
Can the truth be found?
Hallowed ground- pound by pound- glory bound-
brilliance to astound.
Buy another `round- can?t hear a sound



CHORUS 2:
Can you see it?
Gaze into the structure of it all- look it in the eyes.
Can you see it?
Can you see the hopelessness- and all the gilded lies?

BRIDGE:
Apathy- anomy- enemy- history- mystery- travesty- gravity- cavity- funny- runny-
money- money- money- money- money- money- money- money- MONEY- MONEY

(Repeat Choruses to end).
