Forced Collective Introspection

We're here now
We've been scarred
We didn't listen
And we were under armed
A weak link, submission
They recircuited, fact to opinion

Chain reaction
Charge our interactions
Desperate for distraction
Hold transactions
Let us make fraction
As they milk inaction
Forced collective introspection
Communally together, but alone
Forced collective
Patronizing pandering hypocrites
Introspection

By our determination
Finding absolute truth
Convincing fabrication
Managing to enthuse
Feels like you got something you wanna say
Crisis is a terrible thing to waste
And it is never gonna be the same
Nothing takes the pain away
While everything around me
Swarms like a tornado
Somehow the reality
Still holds up without glue

Chain reaction
Charge our interactions
Desperate for distraction
Hold transactions
Let us make fraction
As they milk inaction
Forced collective introspection
