We learn to accept the petty rewards that we get
From the feudal system of our modern day wage-slavery
Setting goals for ourselves that cannot be met
Through this system of self-perpetuating misery
Always saying yes when we want to say no
Because we're committed to our roles of subserviency
Living high on stress, pretending that you're unaffected
While denying the reality that you're dejected
Eraser
The eraser
will erase their
will erase your face
Face the inevitability of extermination
While you sit and passively watch
Our earth's contamination
Infrequent possibilities will
Pacify and rectify the inconsistencies
Common good shoved down your throat
And the common enemy is common sense
Toiling our lives away We learn to accept the petty rewards that we get From the feudal system of our modern day wage-slavery Setting goals for ourselves that cannot be met Through this system of self-perpetuating misery Always saying yes when we want to say no Because we're committed to our roles of subserviency Living high on stress, pretending that you're unaffected While denying the reality that you're dejected Eraser The eraser will erase their will erase your face Face the inevitability of extermination While you sit and passively watch Our earth's contamination Infrequent possibilities will Pacify and rectify the inconsistencies Common good shoved down your throat And the common enemy is common sense Explain Request ×
