Lack of stamina - falling shy of short
Finding it hard to relate
with all these egos and ids
thrown in my face

Step on a fragile this
avoid that like the plague
I'm walking through a minefield
of personal dishevel

No wonder the barred doors
go up as we wander
mindless towards
our Golden Age

If Ignorance is bliss
Give me more
If knowledge is King
let me be the Joker
the court Jest

Give me fear for comfort
keep my mind open
for your gimmicks
to sink in

Twirl my sense of Individuality
till I'm Manchurian by default
say the lie a hundred times
till only truth drops out

I'm opening Pandora's Box of Canned Worms
Show me what they're for
Give me hope
And smash it to the floor
Just go ahead
Smash it to the floor
