CONSUMERISM
Forget forget forget
There's a pattern to your self destruction
A separate element your thoughts belie
Entangled deep within your over reaction
Lay the selfish motivations you so desperately hide

Buy/Sell Forget

There will come a time when all of this means nothing
No set of circumstance prevents the fall
You'll find you've spent your time in search of something
That can't be found in objects, no it can't be found at all
It’s a product of your endless consumption
Constantly buying things you’re told to have right now
It seems so odd to me the quest is in the acquisition
You never use the things you have, they rot on the shelves

So whatever you say, I’m tired of listening
What could you want it for? Do you even know?
Buy whatever you want, it’s all for sale
What could you want it for? Do you even know?

You find importance in possessions you cling to
You sacrificed a life just to have it all
How unfortunate you’ll have to learn the hard way
That nothing here means anything and you’re the one who’s bought and sold
They had you hooked from the moment you arrived here
Taught you that winning means you have to have the most
When will you wake up and start thinking for your own selves
Forget forget forget the lies that you’ve been told

Buy/Sell Forget
So whatever you say, I’m tired of listening
What could you want it for? Do you even know?
Buy whatever you want, it’s all for sale
What could you want it for? Do you even know?
