The world is always changing, faster than we can keep pace
A media and technology barrage, who can win the race?
It's easy to buy in to the system, work a nine-to-five
Settle into a life that never feels like it's alive
Pushed ahead by money, and the things we always need
We're taught to covet and desire, nothing is spared from greed
Yet there's still a feeling of something missing inside
Our basic human rights have been denied
Look and see the message in the bottle
The writing is plain and clear
It reads warning, you cannot escape this world
So drink it away, my dear
We need to open our eyes and remove the veil
Off of a society created not to fail
That keeps us distracted and completely absorbed
And leads us away from true reform
'Cause each right we receive is another victory
That doesn't separate us any further from our misery
No matter how many rights we get, something still seems wrong
Like maybe we weren't meant for this all along
Maybe we weren't meant to give away our entire lives
The burden of our existence, denying everything we are inside
The fruit of our labor distract us from each other
We have become transparent, shadows to one another
When was the last time you had a conversation on the street
Or said "hello" to a person you didn't have to meet?
We don't have a chance for basic interactions anymore
'Cause time is always beating down our door
We need to stop and liberate our minds
We've been running for so long, blind leading the blind
Yet the power comes from us, it's all in our heads
We take it away, the system is dead
Look and see the message in the bottle
The writing is plain and clear
It reads warning, you cannot escape this world
So drink it away, my dear
So drink it away, my dear
