Album: Red Flags (2006)

The Cost

Slaughter by the minute, profit by the day
Everyone is in it, media accentuates
Self is just a word now, meaningless to all
Narcissistic models show you how to fall

Think no more!
Think no more!
So, this... this is what you wanted to withhold?
In truth, that is all you ever seem to do

Exceeding, surpassing, mere growing, mere rising
They're killing perception
We're victims of craze
The thinner the better, the weightless, beget her!
The world breaking way, it's all in your head
This is not an act, I hope you realize the pain it causes
It's a goddamn fact, the amount of load put on our backs

Murder by the minute, earnings by the day
Everyone is in it, media accentuates
We are just a market, watch us how we crawl
Down on bloodied knees now, how they bought us all

Think no more!
Think no more!
So, this... this is what you wanted to withhold?
In truth, that is all you ever seem to do
