Of Idols and Illusion
A picture of misery
How can we trust in what we see?
Dumbed down again by the media
We move in shadows of ourselves
Just to push aside who we really are
And as our system's crashing down
Envy and greed will make us drown
We pave our way into the abyss
We deprive the weak of things they never had
We prefer to sleepwalk in lethargy
We conform to the rich and beautiful
We feed those who feed jealousy (jealousy)
What are we supposed to be?
We're walking down this narrow path for far too long
Caught between the lines of idols and illusion
Grab a hold and take a deep time's moving on
Caught between the lines of idols and illusion
Sell your soul to the insta b*tch
Hype these guys on their muscle-trips
When confidence is made of likes
We don't know anything goddamn!
We're walking down this narrow path for far too long
Caught between the lines of idols and illusion
Grab a hold and take a deep time's moving on
Caught between the lines of idols and illusion
Hear our call from the unknown
This truth is an illusion
Hear our message from the blind spot
Of idols and illusion
We deprive the weak of things they never had
We prefer to sleepwalk in lethargy
We conform to the rich and beautiful
We feed those who feed jealousy
How can we trust in what we see?
Dumbed down again by the media
We move in shadows of ourselves
Just to push aside who we really are
And as our system's crashing down
Envy and greed will make us drown
We pave our way into the abyss
We deprive the weak of things they never had
We prefer to sleepwalk in lethargy
We conform to the rich and beautiful
We feed those who feed jealousy (jealousy)
What are we supposed to be?
We're walking down this narrow path for far too long
Caught between the lines of idols and illusion
Grab a hold and take a deep time's moving on
Caught between the lines of idols and illusion
Sell your soul to the insta b*tch
Hype these guys on their muscle-trips
When confidence is made of likes
We don't know anything goddamn!
We're walking down this narrow path for far too long
Caught between the lines of idols and illusion
Grab a hold and take a deep time's moving on
Caught between the lines of idols and illusion
Hear our call from the unknown
This truth is an illusion
Hear our message from the blind spot
Of idols and illusion
We deprive the weak of things they never had
We prefer to sleepwalk in lethargy
We conform to the rich and beautiful
We feed those who feed jealousy
