Lyrics Look Closer - MORTEN, David Tort

Look Closer

Tune in and avert your eyes to the blank tele-screen
They’re watching you sleep, telling you to eat
What could be soylent green
Now, now, now look away and go back to bed
They will get what they need
When we sleep, work, and play
When we consume and obey
'Cause we are all born in to a controlled mindset
God-money makes a death threat on ethics
Governed by greed and a stale routine
Can we just justify the means if we’re…
Plugged in, tuned out?
We all need to wake up 'cause we’ve been
Detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
Shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies
Re-sensitize, and look closer
Get schooled, get married, get it on
Start a family.
Hurry, move along
You might start to think, make a different move
Lose your only mind that you’ve never used anyway
Walk on the white line.
Brainwashed
Walk on the same side.
Brain dead
It’s secure and safe like you need it all to be
Plugged in, tuned out
We all need to wake up 'cause we’ve been
Detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
Shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies
Re-sensitize, and look closer
And look closer in
(They live) wide awake, fully aware
(We sleep) on a quest to find out where
(They live) the dream turned into a scare
(We sleep) a fascinating new nightmare
(They live) wide awake, fully aware
(We sleep) on a quest to find out where
(They live) the dream turned into a scare
(We sleep) a fascinating new nightmare
Walk on the white line.
Brainwashed
Walk on the same side.
Brain dead
It’s secure and safe like you need it all…
They want benign complacency
This is where we start to look closer
Plugged in, tuned out, wake up
Plugged in, tuned out, wake up
Plugged in, tuned out
We all need to wake up 'cause we’ve been
Detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
Shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies
Re-sensitize, and look closer
Now, now look closer
