(It Was) Capitalism All Along

At night I lay awake, unsure
And wonder how we'll make love more
Appealing than subservience and power
I wonder what could've ever gone
So utterly and deeply wrong
Our hearts grow even colder by the hour

Haven't you ever reached out for help?
How have you turned so much against yourself?
What's got us caught up in the lie of
What's important in our lives?
Tell me, where did we go so wrong?

It was: CAPITALISM all along! (All along!)
It was: GREED and CORRUPTION
That has caused all this disruption
It was: CAPITALISM all along!
It was: CAPITALISM all along! (All along!)
It was: GREED and CORRUPTION
That has caused all this disruption
It was: CAPITALISM all along!

Tell me that you never got
The feeling that all hope is lost
And no matter what you do you cannot win?
Tell me that you've ever seen
The sky so blue or grass so green
As what they show us daily on our screens?

Haven't you ever reached out for help?
How have you turned so much against yourself?
What's got us caught up in the lie of
What's important in our lives?
Tell me, where did we go so wrong?

It was: CAPITALISM all along! (All along!)
It was: GREED and CORRUPTION
That has caused all this disruption
It was: CAPITALISM all along!
It was: CAPITALISM all along! (All along!)
It was: GREED and CORRUPTION
That has caused all this disruption
It was: Capitalism all along!
It was: Capitalism all along
Capitalism all along
It was: Capitalism
It was: Capitalism
It was: Capitalism all along, all along
