Compassion is nothing
Commerce's Reign: Unveiling Society's Illusion
Lyrics
Society's greatest achievement to date was fooling herself that she could tolerate
Society's greatest achievement is self-deception, pretending it can tolerate certain things.
Being governed by money and greed, not giving a fuck about people in need
Society is governed by money and greed, neglecting the needs of people.
That commerce is king and compassion is nothing
The belief that commerce is superior and compassion is worthless.
Compassion is nothing
Reiteration: Compassion holds no value.
So who can we trust and who should we kill?
Raising questions about trust and morality, contemplating who to trust or eliminate.
We need them to keep distributing the pills that we swallow with no questions asked
Dependence on authorities distributing pills, consumed without questioning.
Chugging 'em down with what's left in the flask
Mindlessly consuming pills with the remaining contents of a flask.
We don't want to feel anything that is real
Avoiding genuine emotions, preferring numbness to reality.
'Cause what is real?
Raising existential questions about the nature of reality.
My feelings are impaired and I don't think I care
Indifference to personal feelings and emotions.
They trained me hard they trained me well
Indication of rigorous training affecting emotions.
I'm under this pharmaceutical spell
Under the influence of a pharmaceutical spell, possibly addiction.
And the secrets they won't tell
Reference to hidden truths and undisclosed information.
I don't need to know
Acceptance of ignorance, not needing to know certain things.
So we swallow with no questions asked
Repetition: Swallowing pills without inquiry.
Chugging it down with what's left in the flask
Continued consumption of pills with the remaining contents of a flask.
We don't want to feel anything that is real
Reiteration: Avoidance of genuine emotions and reality.
'Cause what is real?
Repeating existential questioning about the nature of reality.
