Aren’t we all puppets of this fake democracy ?
Closets full off skeletons and hypocrisy
The rich and poor, wealth or bankruptcy
Shall I use my nails and dig those eyes out so you can see?
Aren’t we all puppets obeying the idiot box
Fashionistas and papparazi gets you on the locks
Obliviously setting trends that are bollocks
Mindlessly obsessing figurines that are unlikely vogue
Aren’t we all puppets hiding behind our lies?
Hating one another building walls with our sinister smiles
Are you feeling the burn, the smothering of my ride
Gosh won’t you wake up and smell the vile?
Aren’t we all puppets shamelessly following what we’ve been told?
The hands of dirt we have, but the hands of sin they hold
I dare not stand up for I fear I might fall into their world
Instead I wrote this to conceal my thoughts that are vastly cold…
