Like a dog on a leash
Awaiting our reward for the tricks they teach
Be a good boy, toe the line
Don't ask too many questions, and you'll be just fine
Stay within the lines they've drawn you
Curtains you must never peek through
Surely it must all be worth it
Eternity for the imperfect
Fuel for the fire
We won't stop burning 'til we get enough
Fools laid on pyres
Kindling waiting for the match to drop
Like a black hole, never full
Consuming everything left within its pull
Get the latest, get the best
Get behind on your payments and get depressed
Fill up the coffers of corporate greed
All in the name of a made-up need
Algorithmic artifice
And somehow we're all okay with this
Fuel for the fire
We won't stop burning 'til we get enough
Fools laid on pyres
Kindling waiting for the match to drop
Immolating habitat
The ship is sinking, and we are the rats
Like a cancer that's contagious
Burning down the world when it's advantageous
Plague of locusts, ship of fools
Poor decisions hitherto
Nowhere left for us to run
Hurl ourselves into the sun
Fuel for the fire
We won't stop burning 'til we get enough
Fools laid on pyres
Kindling waiting for the match to drop
Fuel for the fire
We won't stop burning 'til we get enough
Fools laid on pyres
Kindling waiting for the match to drop
