Propaganda!

[Verse 1]
Early in the morning, before the sun could rise
Keeping to myself almost felt like a disguise
I couldn't be the one to tell you what was off that day
Opening my mouth is the most dangerous game
Once upon a time, I never knew fear like this
I can't remember how it happened, or why it did
Developing an obsession to open closed doors
Gave me a compulsive need to find out even more

[Pre-Chorus]
And off we go to play telephone
Sharing what we know
But how long can we keep playing until the game
Undermines the status quo?

[Chorus]
It's all propaganda, prop-propaganda
I have a feeling I'm not alone (Not alone)
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
Don't believe anything you see or hear
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
I can't be the only one who knows (The only)
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
Propaganda, prop-propaganda

[Post-Chorus]
If we could go back, back then
When it was easier...
They say ignorance is bliss
Why did I pick up the phone?
When it was easier...
I should've stayed oblivious

[Verse 2]
Falling down the rabbit hole and running out of time
Hoping no one notices my thoughts are out of line
I know they know we know that something isn't right
After this, my life eclipsed into fear, day and night

[Breakdown]
A call to action, call for passion
Call for something more, for war
"If you're not with us, you're against us"
But I don't like the odds, the score
Call me complicit, give me a minute
Let me decide, it's my own life
I'm not about to pretend
These people are close to being my friends

[Bridge]
Can I do it? (I can run)
I could do it (I could run)
Should I do it? (I should run)
I should do it (I should run)

[Verse 3]
And so I ran as fast as I could
Through the ocean of trees, through the sting of the breeze
And so I ran, I ran for my life
And I ran for a dream, for whatever that means
And so I ran as fast as I could
Through the ocean of trees, through the sting of the breeze
And so I ran (And so I ran), I ran for my life
And I ran for a dream, for whatever that means
And so I ran as fast as I could
Through the ocean of trees, through the sting of the breeze
And so I ran, I ran for my life
And I ran for a dream, for whatever that means
I ran for my life, I ran for my life
And so I-

[Pre-Chorus]
Every thought is sabotage
What a fool I am!
But how long can we keep playing and playing
Game after game?
No-! Losing game after losing game

[Buildup]
It's all
Propaganda! Prop-propaganda!
Propaganda! Prop-propaganda!
Propaganda! Prop-propaganda!
Propaganda! Prop-propaganda!

[Chorus]
It's all propaganda, prop-propaganda
I have a feeling I'm not alone (Not alone)
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
Don't believe anything you see or hear, it's
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
I can't be the only one who knows
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
Propaganda, prop-propaganda

[Outro]
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
Propaganda, prop-propaganda
