Costume Party

You hold soo tight Those dreams you don't understand You hide very well Behind a nonchalant mask You smile soo wide How did you get away with that? You run soo fast With no getaway plan T.V has become a reality Every child in actuality a prodigy Radio based on insanity Reason tasted humanity You testify, you rationalize, then they electrify And everyone wonders what's wrong with their stupid lives You hold soo close those things most can't have You hide very well Behind an obvious mask You smile soo wide How did you get away with that? Running soo fast With no getaway plan Do you love at all? do you aim to please? Do you love anything? Do you love anymore? selfish with your own needs Do you love anything Besides your own greed T.V has become sadistic Every child bears its witness Radio preaches no forgiveness Reason tested humanity When you testify, they rationalize, when everything is this electrified Everyone wonders what's wrong with their stupid minds
