Lyrics

A good and decent man falls down on his luck He did everything right, but everything went wrong Someone else must be to blame He turns on the tv, and likes what he sees It's not his fault that he went to work drunk He's just another victim of the world's evil cabal Sycophants and talking heads, tell you what you see isn't real In search of a new reality Lies beget fear and with fear comes anger gone is objective truth The final step in this dance of deceit, is when fear becomes the law Sinking deeper into the internet with despair The more unhinged the idea The more he thinks there's something there He is one of the chosen, not even god could sway them from their insane crusade Politicians Spouting nonsense From the fringe Adding validity to the craziness for their constituents to binge Only way They can win Is with fear If votes don't count, they can never lose They want to grind democracies gears Sycophants and talking heads, tell you what you see isn't real In search of a new reality Lies beget fear and with fear comes anger gone is objective truth The final step in this dance of deceit, is when fear becomes the law The simple man is broken When all the lies he believes in don't come true He's been pushed to the brink, he's lost all he has There is only one thing left to do When he finally realizes, there is no one left to blame He puts the gun to his head, pulls the trigger He finally escapes the lies and the shame They corrupt the process and sow doubt To justify new bills born from insane lies To break the system and burn it all down Fear has now become the law
