They were picking up the bodies on TV

When I caught a reflection of you and me

Staring back at us while frozen on the screen

Crank the white noise and pretend

That we're asleep

That we're asleep

Dream dream dream dream

They were separating families carelessly

Under the guise of protecting you and me

Jailing innocents, no hope of being free

Crank the white noise and pretend

That we're asleep

That we're asleep

Dream dream dream dream

They were lining up the unsuspecting teens

For a violent moment of celebrity

Golden bullets blessed by lobbyist money

Splash a tidal wave of blood into your stream

Weaponizing what's left of your empathy

Trapped inside a void that zeroes out the screams

It's not a dream, it's not a dream

It's not a dream, it's not a dream

It's not a dream, it's not a dream

It's not a dream, it's not a dream

It's not a dream, not a dream, not a dream

It's not a dream, not a dream, not a dream, not a dream

It's not a dream, not a dream, not a dream, not a dream

It's not a dream, not a dream, not a dream, not a—

The only framework capitalism can thrive in is dystopia

Fuck all the fakers acting like they're interested in hearing us when we yell

Hold accountable the architects of hopelessness and never-ending violence!

They'll be like: Whatever, idiot, and fuel their brand of power incorruptible

Like it exists, saintly fronts in a system that rewards only the greediest

The only endgame for capitalism is dystopia

And we know all about but we just don't know what to do

What can we do? What can we do? What can we do?

Nothing more to see here y'all, goodnight

Start heading towards the exits

Nothing more to see here y'all, goodnight

Start heading towards the exits

Nothing more to see here y'all, goodnight

Start heading towards the exits

Nothing more to see here y'all, goodnight

Start heading towards the exits

Fuck violence
