This Is Really Foolish

Everyone knows that this is not good for you
Still you let it grind your credibility to dust
You say that we must keep the machine running
There will be some critical voices that we need to adjust

There are always people who will agree
To everything you say
They will pay homage to all of your deeds
That you will do for them
That is how they control and keep you in line
You already knew that
But you don't care you're in it to gain authority

Now you break down our social security again
Somehow you believe it is for a better cause
How come you don't see our reality
Did you become blind and addicted to tragic flaws

There must be a way to something new
That can benefit us all
A world where people like you are gone
Where we are equals
A place where we share all our ideas
To anyone for free
But this is probably just an utopia

It seems like we are coded to greed and harmful acts
We would sell our souls if we could just present the right knick-knacks

I'm sorry but this might be the end
Can we continue on
And follow this track just to defend
Our point of view
Soon we have reached a point of no return
Then it is too late
Do you not agree that this is really foolish
Do you not agree that this is really foolish
Do you not agree that this is really foolish
