Face Down

Insanity

Face Down


A befitting doom for a generation 
A drug ridden culture of mass sedation 
Failing to realize its own demise 
Failing generation, caught by surprise 

Identity crisis 
My sanity's priceless 
I don't fuckin' like this 
Insanity 

Poseur-isms and masochisms 
Drive the youth to materialism 
Falling under the corporate wheel 
Crushed in its wake, with nothing left to feel 

Diverted perceptions and urban decay 
Millions of people are led astray 
Not by force, but by their own will 
No visible enemy, no men to kill 

Our very desires fuel the death machine 
We're drowned in smoke and by TV screens 
Made to believe that this is the only way 
We follow along until our dying day 

Emotions thieved from another of their kind 
A stolen identity, another man's mind 
That which is felt is only felt to achieve 
The status quo of what is "cool" to perceive 

Never take heed 
Never listen to warning 
Until it's too late 
Then we start mourning 

Insanity! Insanity! 

Poseur-isms and masochisms 
Drive the youth to materialism 
Falling under the corporate wheel 
Crushed in its wake, with nothing left to feel 

Insanity! Insanity! 

Streets run red with the blood of the people 
Self-inflicted, a pain that cripples 
No one else to blame except for ourselves 
Recreating this personal hell 

A befitting doom for a generation 
A drug ridden culture of mass sedation 
Failing to realize its own demise 
Failing generation, caught by surprise 

Identity crisis 
My sanity's priceless 
I don't fuckin' like this 
Insanity
