Consume

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
We, know, it’s futile to compare
Our culture was the culprit, we were taken unaware

[Chorus]
Manifest the weakness, a self-fulfilling prophecy
Undermining every insecurity

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
We know we never should have had this cross to bear
Our culture was the culprit, we were taken unaware

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
Manifest the weakness, a self-fulfilling prophecy
Undermining every insecurity

[Verse 3]
To fan the flame, to watch your pride burn away
To reinforce the fear that taught us that we’re never good enough

[Outro]
We’ve been chasing false perfection
Searching in the wrong direction
This is the crux of our corruption
Drawn into social seduction
