lyrics

it's eating up my mind,
the things i see online
and it isn't even work the time
i give attention to it all,
orchestrating my own fall,
and it isn't even real at all.

we're given a chance to turn it off
and live our lives how we decide,
we're playing with chance now
it's out of our hands,
so we might as well refocus.

they're playing with my fears,
grabbing at my ears,
it doesn't even matter if it's true
as long as they move you the job is done,
and that's how we were won,
with fabrications to regulate you.

all these hours spent to decipher this,
and what do we have to show for it?
now i think it's time to quit,
and have a new experience.
