Pretending People

from Dark Beach EP by Dark Beach

/

lyrics

Don’t want to be a part of your party
Your unfun political party
Your extreme ex-dreams
It starts with the heart
And it ends with the wallet
Always
It becomes what it wasn’t
It does what it doesn’t
Always

Hope and change are slogans
Furthering corporate motives
It’s the same in each campaign
There’s millionaires behind the screen
And workers operating things
It becomes what it wasn’t
It does what it doesn’t
It’s a constant contradiction
And it’s money with a mission
No face

Let’s stop pretending, people: there is no heart.
There’s only cash, big houses and fancy cars.
Let’s build a mirror, people; let’s tear the mask
Let’s answer all the questions they’re afraid to ask

Which way is there to go besides this way we think we know?
Which way is there to go but on and on and on and on?
