Bleak Nothingness

Distract and numb, a slate left clean
Can't find no roots, this coddled machine
Force you in any direction
For their sake, a common subjection

How can I stand, idly by?
Bleak nothingness in your eyes
You haven't got an ounce of passion
Go on about your fucking fashion

You know it's true

What's it like to be part of their show?
Meaningless at most
Wasted life on the defensive
I can't comprehend it

I wish you'd just move on with your life
Instead, you'll bask in the limelight
Another ruse, a lie straight to your face
Once again you've been misplaced

It's no coincidence, it's no surprise
The fire dwindles, then dies
A common pattern, you'll jump onto the next
Same old story, one that never truly begins
(Ooh)

Bleak nothingness in your eyes
Onto your next sorry disguise
Now it's all gone to your head
Seems to me, you've been misled

You know it's true
You know it's true
You know it's true
You know it's true (oh-oh, oh-oh)
You know it's true (oh-oh, oh-oh)
You know it's true (oh-oh, oh-oh)
You know it's true (oh-oh, oh-oh)

You know it's true!
Oi!
