Lyrics
[Verse 1]
This is what we've become
[Verse 2]
Calling all cars, it's an emergency, listen
Ladies and gentlemen, we are at the end of existence
The television is fiction, it's tellin' lies to our vision
It's like a prison that we live in and we're all in the system
[Verse 3]
We live in a box and keep our family traditions
We keep out guns cocked, stocked up with more ammunition
We teach our children to kill instead of teachin' 'em wisdom
And politicians wagin' wars blame it all on religion
[Verse 4]
We're dying, I'm feeling like I'm losing it again
The only person that we're losing is yourself to this
I'm trying to be all that they want me to be
But it's hard to believe we are the enemy
[Verse 5]
Will you wait and see
When the world stops spinning, and we're all pretending to be okay?
But it's hard to be when you find out it's fake
Humanity is trapped in a prison
Open up your eyes, see the vision
Wait and see
When the world stops spinning, I won't stop pretending to be
[Verse 6]
Callin' all people, we're in a state of confusion
Because we hate what we love, and it's like a drug, we abuse it
And we're pollutin' solutions, and we're all equal as humans
Truly united we stand, damn, let's connect through the music
[Verse 7]
And all this hatred I'm seein', but it's all an illusion
People usin' social media to hurt us, it's stupid
And all these kids just feel the need to cut themselves on their wrist
The type of shit their parents miss, because they're losing their grip
[Verse 8]
We're dying, I'm feeling like I'm losing it again
The only person that we're losing is yourself to this
I'm trying to be all that they want me to be
But it's hard to believe we are the enemy
[Verse 9]
Will you wait and see
When the world stops spinning, and we're all pretending to be okay?
But it's hard to be when you find out it's fake
Humanity is trapped in a prison
Open up your eyes, see the vision
Wait and see
When the world stops spinning, I won't stop pretending to be
[Verse 10]
What in the hell have we done to ourselves?
Brick by brick, we've built this cell
We have nothing left but a hollow shell, hollow shell
[Verse 11]
Wait and see
When the world stops spinning, and we're all pretending to be okay
But it's hard to be when you find out it's fake
[Verse 12]
Will you wait and see
When the world stops spinning, and we're all pretending to be okay?
But it's hard to be when you find out it's fake
Humanity is trapped in a prison
Open up your eyes, see the vision
Wait and see
When the world stops spinning, I won't stop pretending to be
[Verse 13]
When the world stops spinning, I won't stop pretending to be
When the world stops spinning, I won't stop pretending to be okay
But it's hard to be when you find out it's fake
