No Little Pill

I thought the west was won but
Seems I had just begun to
Lose all ideals I once knew

Mountains and transmutation
Anxious anticipation
These sodden skies and burning views

Short goals and vain objectives
Soon rising seas will take our homes

Benchmarks and sure salvation
Creation and temptation
Black lungs sing virtuous hate songs

Antibiotics and disinfectants
Germa-phobes for stronger infection
Androids on steroids love tabloids

And they crave an endless surplus
Soon they'll have nothing left to waste

Racing from dogma to distrust
Soon they will scream "God Save Us!"

Think about it, think about it
The world describes you
Think about it, think about it all
You should be depressed
And no little pill should make any difference

People for atto seconds
Bow to their idiocracy
Media spun reality

Nightmares most every shuteye
Still they won't see what they have done
Still they won't see what they have done

Power mad mass corruption
Blood money changes everyone

Wake each day in panic and distrust
Knowing why they all hate us

Think about it, think about it all
The world describes you
Think about it, think about it
You should be anxious
No little pill
No little pill
No little pill
Will make any difference

Children born uncorrupted will see the forest for the trees
Then watch us burn it to the ground
