manipulated

better take a side,
don't use your common sense, let emotions decide
I find it interesting how you use your "voice"
they don't need speakers on buildings
that's what we have television for
just behave and please don't think

in this small spectrum we're given a choice
think beyond that and you're an enemy
what would the pawn do if he knew this is a game?
you think he'd still want to play along?

and for god's sake I hope I'm wrong
here's hoping, here's hoping
nightmarish thoughts are all gone
they're taken with our dreams
made manifest all around us
maybe one day you'll sing along
here's hoping, here's hoping
force fed a story, you eat it up
ya watch so many shows, I think you're losing touch
who cares about plot holes as long the ending's the same
manipulated in choosing a side
argue amongst yourselves while demons hide
just take a step back and open your eyes
it might already be too late

in this small spectrum we're given a choice
think beyond that and you're an enemy
what would the pawn do if he knew this is a game?
you think he'd still want to play along?

for god's sake I hope I'm wrong
here's hoping, here's hoping
nightmarish thoughts are all gone
they're taken with our dreams
made manifest all around us
maybe one day you'll sing along
here's hoping, here's hoping
