[Intro]
[Verse 1]
A cough in the dark, a shadow on the screen,
They whispered "Stay inside, the world’s unclean."
SARS wore new clothes, a name we’ve seen before,
But the pills cost a fortune, and they’re slamming the door.
[Chorus]
Oh, they’re painting fear in neon light,
Empty your pockets, it’s a profit night.
"Trust the science," but question the lies,
A pandemic of greed in a thin disguise.
[Verse 2]
The graphs climb high, but who’s counting the toll?
A tax on the air, and they’re stealing your soul.
The truth’s in the data, but it’s buried deep,
While the shelves all rattle as the vigilants sleep.
[Chorus]
Oh, they’re painting fear in neon light,
Empty your pockets, it’s a profit night.
"Trust the science," but question the lies,
A pandemic of greed in a thin disguise.
[Bridge]
We’re just numbers in their ledger,
Break the chain, untie the thread.
When the masks crack, what’s left unsaid?
A virus of power—it spreads and spreads.
[Chorus]
Oh, they’re painting fear in neon light,
Empty your pockets, it’s a profit night.
"Trust the science," but question the lies,
A pandemic of greed in a thin disguise.
[Outro]
