Blood and oil fuse turmoil
We suffocate on years of industry, bad credit, overpopulation
What machines took from us, loans gave to us
What chemicals pollute our bodies, statistics aspire to say
What irresponsible bankers penetrated
Stole from the masses our freedom, our earnings, our dignity
Recession brings them money
So let's give into the media Gods
Make the television our altar, pray to it every evening
In hopes that Hollywood will create our faith for us
Education makes you think, and thinking won't get you into heaven
Thinking makes you partisan, a drone for the verbal civil war
Divided we stand, divided we fall
The cavity fractures deeper
Medicine is an industry
So let's give in to mental illness
Make pills our water, drink in the conformity
Make us fat, lazy, impaired fearlings in the factory of society
In government we trust
Ignore the conspiracies and increase your debt
For eight years we were spoonfed the seeds of totalitarianism
Of lies and devils in disguise we know little about
Why didn't they listen to us in 2003?
War brings them money
So just let them scare everyone
With accusations of terrorism, crisis, disaster
They knew what we were getting ourselves into
They knew it far better than we did
Terrorism is the new communism
And you can't win a war on an idea
The cavity fractures deeper
So open your mouth
Gobble up the sins of imperialism
Get a loan, take your meds, worship the television
Relax, God is in control
God is the answer to the questions we are afraid to ask
The cavity of America deepens and spirals
Into a dark era of implied slavery and artistic void
The American Dream explodes into a Godless fabrication
Of dream exploitation and media whoring
Change is promised, but revolution promises more
We are trapped in a beautiful world
Shadowed by illusions propelled by the machetes of greedy men
But in their weakness shines our strength
And the strength of others shine when we are present
That's all we can offer in a rich, tired world
The cavity aggravates the Earth
