Plugged Into A System That's Shot To Hell

by xxkurtcobainxx   Jun 1, 2006


Safety rules to calm us down
The want to sustain the teenage town
A culture created by the young
An anthem that will always be sung
Recommendations written in red
I never heard anything that you said
Media blurs and propaganda haze
They all try to say that's it's just a phase
Casting out your parent's religion
Kiss me with your exact precision
Insanity that comes and goes
An endless poem that never flows
A social life shot to s---
On the curb is where you sit
Trees that grow out of seeds of madness
Sinners that try not to see the world's sadness
You're thrown out of paradise
The drugs that will never suffice
A bloodthirsty race to make your brain stop
I stare at the building, and watch your form drop
From the factory, the pipes lead
The homeless people that they feed
From this fatal system, I want to unplug
To weave myself out of this conformed rug
Our society built on a lie
They teach the people not to ask why
What's the use for a treble clef
When the whole country's turning deaf
Talking to a simulation
Friends of your own imagination
A forbidden story of forgotten love
The memory of what lies above
Processing words to remove insult
The jury sentences when there is no fault
Falling in love without saying a word
A vision of the future becoming blurred
Maybe we were doomed from the start
The stained brains piled in a shopping cart
