Alter Memory

When there's nothing to rebel against
When we can't see beyond the obvious
We're falling victim
To shortsighted social constructs
Break'em down to the essential

Now take a good look and see
Claim the moral high ground
And set yourselves up for the fall
Our public discourse
Poisoned by self-righteousness

We are so afraid
Of all that is real
Confirmation bias
Is all that we seek

You're caught inside
The echo chamber
Forge ahead as the leader of movement
As I try to free myself of this delusion
By entering a new state of revolt
These dead letters
They pass for a better solution
So we're just
As guilty as our fellow man

Nothing but fact resistant beliefs
A statute of emotion not thought
I can no longer stand this complacency
As I cut off
This nefarious stream of words
For in this debate
There's no place for reason or logic
All hidden in self-reassurance
No normative sense of self

You're caught inside
The echo chamber
Forge ahead as the leader of movement
As I try to free myself of this delusion
By entering a new state of revolt
These dead letters
They pass for a better solution
So we're just
As guilty as our fellow man

So we're just as guilty
As our fellow man
So we're just as guilty
As our fellow man
