Look Closer

Lyrics

We are intent only on our own gain

Tune in and avert your eyes to the blank telescreen (go)
They're watching you sleep, telling you to eat
What could be Soylent Green
Now, now, now, look away and go back to bed
They will get what they need
Will we sleep, work, and play?
When we consume and obey

Lyrics continue below...

'Cause we are all born into a controlled mindset
God money makes a death threat on ethics
Governed by greed and a stale routine
Can we just justify the means if we're...

Plugged in, tuned out?
We all need to wake up 'cause we've been
Detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
Shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies
Re-sensitize and look closer

Get schooled, get married, get it on
Start a family, hurry, move along
You might start to think, make a different move
Lose your only mind that you've never used anyway

Walk on the white line (brainwashed)
Walk on the same side (braindead)
It's secure and safe like
You need it all to be

Plugged in, tuned out
We all need to wake up 'cause we've been
Detached for too long
We need to deprogram from
Shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies
Re-sensitize and look closer
And look closer in

(They live) Wide awake, fully aware
(We sleep) On a quest to find out where
(They live) The dream turned into a scare
(We sleep) A fascinating new nightmare
(They live) I'm wide awake, fully aware
(We sleep) On a quest to find out where
(They live) The dream turned into a scare
(We sleep) A fascinating new nightmare
(They live)

Walk on the white line (brainwashed)
And walk on the same side (braindead)
It's secure and safe like
You need it all

They want benign complacency
This is where we start to look closer

Plugged in, tuned out (wake up)
Plugged in, tuned out (wake up)
Plugged in, tuned out
We all need to wake up 'cause we've been
Detached for too long
Need to deprogram from
Shifting with the public eye
We have a right to question why
See through the lies
Re-sensitize and look closer

Now, now, look closer
