Consume |
Before we knew what we were missing |
Before we felt desire’s sting |
We were content with what we had |
And never wanted for anything |
We, know, it’s futile to compare |
Our culture was the culprit, we were taken unaware |
Manifest the weakness, a self-fulfilling prophecy |
Undermining every insecurity |
It’s a fear growing deeper when no one’s around |
Like a nagging aching sore |
The devil’s in the detail, the truth inconsequential |
The idle mind is scrutinized and robbed of its potential in time |
Begging for redemption |
Pleading for solutions |
We know we never should have had this cross to bear |
Our culture was the culprit, we were taken unaware |
We’ve been led to think we needed more |
Resenting who we are |
Only to find that we were better off, better off before |
Before we bought what we were sold |
Before we tried to fit the mold |
We’ve been chasing false perfection |
Searching in the wrong direction |
This is the crux of our corruption |
Drawn into social seduction |
Manifest the weakness, a self-fulfilling prophecy |
Undermining every insecurity |
To fan the flame, to watch your pride burn away |
To reinforce the fear that taught us that we’re never good enough |
We’ve been chasing false perfection |
Searching in the wrong direction |
This is the crux of our corruption |
Drawn into social seduction |
