Selling Rebellion

Is this my life or is it just routine

With a dime, purchased my self esteem

All this aggression self-hatred makes for one angry machine

Now they're selling rebellion all up to me

They're selling rebellion because right now it's what I need

Could you sell me enough?

Security an emotional need

We're all the same made from the same machine

We could rise up to take a stand but they are waiting and one step ahead

Now they're selling rebellion all up to you

Selling rebellion because they see it in you

Take it and make it all my own

I paid good money to feel safe

I believe everything

I buy therefore I am

There's something that I'm looking for

The thing that promises me more

A mass production of what makes me who I am

Escape from this mundane life

They tell you you need something more

You need to be a better man now

Well they've got something for you

But they're going to need to whore you

Could you sacrifice your soul for this?

Well you're going to need to try

I think I found the piece of you

That doesn't come from a package

But they're waiting for it to fail

So they can sell you something new
