[Verse 1]
I wake up, already thousands of greedy eyes following my every move
I’m wondering what today they wanna make me do again
To make them pleased, make them see how happy a living thing can be
Trapped in its own pool of tears, with nothing to fear, but fear itself but I am fierce
I will get out of here
[Chorus 1]
You, you think you know me
Well, you don’t know anything about me
And you don’t see what’s going on here
Behind the curtains
You never see the truth
[Verse 2]
My mom, I will see her again
Someday when the lights finally go down in this public death camp
And I’ll be free and I will see what life really has in store for me
The entire sea
And when the fun is gone, you're lucky enough to go home
And see your family or whatever else you’d like to see
And I’m still here remembering every face
But after all I’m just an attraction in a tiny glass cage
[Chorus 2]
You, you think you know us
Well, you don’t know anything about us, do you?
And you don’t see what we’re going through
For your little fishy tricks
We have to do to survive
[Bridge]
Tell me what’s educational about pain?
Why does it make you feel so good seeing me suffering?
Profit is all these people know
Yet everyone here is delusional after all
[Outro]
You think you know what’s going on
Well, you don’t know shit, you don’t know shit, no
I’m slowly dying in here
And you’re taking your picture
It’s fun seeing me caught up so I won’t eat ya, right?
