lyrics
You work day in and day out
You slave your life away
You're not content unless you're buying your way
You wanna fit in so bad that it makes you weak
Bow down to your master
And through a screen they control your desires
They are our puppeteers
Just close your eyes and follow the orders
From our overseers
They've taken over your life
And play it like a game
They take the grin from your face and make you feel insane
They never fail to make you feel like you don't belong
So they can fill their pockets
And through a screen they control your desires
They are our puppeteers
Just close your eyes and follow the orders
From our overseers
Every night you lie in bed and dream away
Of all things you think you need to possess
You will regret
And walk into the trap they've set
There's no limit to greed and corruption
They want bigger mansions, nicer cars
They commit crimes and go unpunished
They don't know the meaning of the word "less"
They want more, they are getting more
And we are stuck paying the fucking bill
And through a screen they control your desires
They are our puppeteers
Just close your eyes and follow the orders from our masters
And through a screen they control your desires
They own your life
Just close your eyes and follow the orders
From our overseers
You slave your life away
You're not content unless you're buying your way
You wanna fit in so bad that it makes you weak
Bow down to your master
And through a screen they control your desires
They are our puppeteers
Just close your eyes and follow the orders
From our overseers
They've taken over your life
And play it like a game
They take the grin from your face and make you feel insane
They never fail to make you feel like you don't belong
So they can fill their pockets
And through a screen they control your desires
They are our puppeteers
Just close your eyes and follow the orders
From our overseers
Every night you lie in bed and dream away
Of all things you think you need to possess
You will regret
And walk into the trap they've set
There's no limit to greed and corruption
They want bigger mansions, nicer cars
They commit crimes and go unpunished
They don't know the meaning of the word "less"
They want more, they are getting more
And we are stuck paying the fucking bill
And through a screen they control your desires
They are our puppeteers
Just close your eyes and follow the orders from our masters
And through a screen they control your desires
They own your life
Just close your eyes and follow the orders
From our overseers
