Kingdom of Silence

Oh pretend,
Like it's you that's in control
And that you aren't
A slave to your TV remote
Get your coat and try to stay afloat your sinking boat
It's not a simple tide
It's no good to hide
They own the water and everything you find

Oh my, they do not share a face
They infilitrate your defenses through flaws in the human race
They don't care about time or place
Peeking through your bedroom door to make sure you can't concentrate

"No wait- I can't concentrate"
"Hold on, let me take this call"
"Have you seen that video? I can't believe they would say that..."
"They can't be running around with an opinion like that!"

And lock your eyes
To the phone, you got to know what's going on
It's no surprise
That we don't really know what's going on
They feed you lies
Fortune ties to the man with many pawns
Do what you're told
No space to be bold, you got to keep your head on

You claim to be kind
But here you stand upon your kingdom of silence
You claim to be strong
But you break down whenever they oppose your guidance
It's a broken game
That you play so very well
I'll lose my life
For displeasing you or refusing to promote poor health
