lyrics

Addicted to a fantasy
I speak the truth,
But you still spit in my face
A cognitive dissonance,
That goes unrivaled
A friendship that you'll throw away,
Because you can't admit when you're wrong

You tell me to just live my life
Call me insane because I care
Coming from you,
I'll wear it like a badge of honor
Your ignorance is not bliss

You're not the first,
And you will not be the last
I'm not afraid to walk alone
This quest for truth requires lots of sacrifice
When it comes to you, I won't look back,
Because you can't admit when you're wrong

You tell me to just live my life
Call me insane because I care
Coming from you,
I'll wear it like a badge of honor
Your ignorance is not bliss

It's the herd mentality
If the majority believes it,
Then it must be true
Every time
Everywhere
You will follow

Nothing but an empty vessel
You live in a fictional reality
There's no sense of purpose,
Inside your mind
Another day, another hoax,
But you will just eat up what you're told
Acceptance is your drug

Programmed to think that
Everything is just coincidence
"Why would they lie?"
They live, you sleep

Breaking news!
This just in!
Another Hollywood script
Another drill that's passed off as real
Rinse and repeat

Shoot the messengers!
All who oppose!

Who are you to tell me how to live my life?
You are the one who breeds negativity

Never have I felt more alive
Mentally, I see clearer
There's no regrets
Since cutting you out

Most people are unreachable,
But once you disconnect yourself from the beast,
You can't go back
