Falling in a burning book of pasts long passed
Taken away from the lonely hearts holding tight to their right
Why the people fear the ghosts misunderstood
In our concrete jungle world, there's no place for the skewed
Keeping you in line, hungry all the time
Devil's in the details, devil's in the rhyme
We've seen it all before, didn't even change the score
All according to their plan
Everything you want, everything you are
Is a part of a plan with your mind in mind
Anything you do, will come for you
When lights don't shine where you want them to
Take away the need to say what's on your mind
It can bring you peace if only for a little while
Stories of unwritten truths find eyes beguiled
It is only a matter of time before they're let loose to run wild
Flavors of the flesh, savory and fresh
Remove the troublesome whatevers in your head
It's a matter of time before words are a crime
In a world strictly sublime
Anything you want, anything you do
Is all nicely designed and given to you
Don't cross the line, and you'll be fine
But where they draw the line all depends on you
Take a number, take a seat, take a break from the heat
And enjoy their ploy to enamor you
Look at all their pretty lights, freedom in sight
Awaiting you to set it free
Keeping you in line, hungry all the time
The meat's still on the bone, you're not eating it alone
We've seen it all before, didn't even change the score
All according to their plan
Everything you want, everything you are
Is a part of a plan with your mind in mind
Anything you do, will come for you
When lights don't shine where you want them to
Flavors of the flesh, savory and fresh
Take away those thoughts living in your head
It's a matter of time before words are crime
In a world with a painted on smile
In a world where darkness never shines
In a world strictly sublime
