and a handful of lonely hearts
is all this is worth
the mouthpiece is just background noise
so mkae way for another media lie
the cover of your grocery store
teen magazine is calling you zombie
what emaciated face do you worship today?
silently facing the reality
at three in the morning
while you're inhaling that new car smell
butcher shop punk rock
and hands pounding on hearts
is all this is worth
our schools will burn
as they perpetuate and reflect
the lies and lives of a society gone awry
so i sit silently reading the books
not published by government publicists
the laughter is loud face to face
and you didn't hear the punch line
