all I believe is nothing

hosed down with an ice cold stream of lies

I try to stand and take it

bite down on the taste of bile

I just want you to know I know

it's all bullshit, it's all made up

play the tune of powercrats

the flute is news, and we're the rats

embedding reporters with the troops on the front

implanting lies, in the stories you dream up

weave together a construct of half truths, misquotes, and outright lies

tear apart reality, then rebuild it before our eyes

I've blacked out the media

see no lies, hear no one die

the myth of free press shattered

distort for profit, bottom line

no one bothers to cover,

the death of truth, assassinated

failed to serve your purpose

erased replaced, new name and face

gunned down truth in plain sight

the whole world sees, yet no one screams

the masses know, but care? we don’t

we'd rather live the media dream
