Just a litte someting,I dont necessarily belive in it all, but often given pause to wonder
Franchise messiah


You see your gods on the plasma screen,
Telling you what to do
You believe in their words
Digesting them with ease
We are just shells for their words to fill
Million dollar smiles fake tans and lives
Consuming us with their consumption
A product of their production
Anorexic is salvation
Obese is damnation
Walking billboards we have become
Speaking phrases borrowed from others
Imagination is gone like last years fashion
We cannot go forward without direction
We only tell the truth when we lie
An only know the truth when we die
