[Intro]
(Driving guitar riff, heavy drums k**k in abruptly)
[Verse 1]
Another plastic smile, another hollow cheer
I watch the masses shuffle, drowning in their fear
Of seeing what's outside the cage they built so tight
Content to bathe in shadows, terrified of light
You trade your soul for comfort, numb and unaware
While whispers turn to warnings, thicken in the air
You think the walls are safety? Just a gilded cell
Can't you smell the b*****g? Can't you hear the knell?
[Chorus]
WAKE UP! Before the curtain falls!
Can't you see the writing scrawled across these crumbling walls?
The signs are screaming louder, tearing at the seams!
Rip the veils from off your eyes and shatter all your dreams!
WAKE UP! Before it's far too late!
This isn't just some twisted fate, it's consequence we create!
Open up your blinded eyes! Can't you finally SEE?
Or are you just too comfortable in your apathy?
[Verse 2]
They feed you pretty lies wrapped up in flashing screens
Distract you with the nonsense, fulfilling all your needs
Except the one that matters, the hunger deep inside
To question, push, and challenge, nowhere left to hide
You cheer the puppet masters pulling all the strings
While p****n seeps unnoticed, the bitter taste it brings
The rot beneath the shiny surface starts to show
How long before the fragile structures start to go?
[Chorus]
WAKE UP! Before the curtain falls!
Can't you see the writing scrawled across these crumbling walls?
The signs are screaming louder, tearing at the seams!
Rip the veils from off your eyes and shatter all your dreams!
WAKE UP! Before it's far too late!
This isn't just some twisted fate, it's consequence we create!
Open up your blinded eyes! Can't you finally SEE?
Or are you just too comfortable in your apathy?
[Bridge]
(Heavier, slower tempo, more menacing)
Tick... tock... the clock is ticking down
This hollow paradise is b*****g to the ground
You built it on foundations made of sand and greed
Ignoring every warning, every single seed
Of doubt they tried to plant? You crushed it in your hand
Now face the fucking music! Across this dying land!
No savior's coming riding, no miracle in sight
Just ashes and the echoes fading into night...
[Chorus]
WAKE UP! Before the curtain falls!
Can't you see the writing scrawled across these crumbling walls?
The signs are screaming louder, tearing at the seams!
Rip the veils from off your eyes and shatter all your dreams!
WAKE UP! Before it's far too late!
This isn't just some twisted fate, it's consequence we create!
Open up your blinded eyes! Can't you finally SEE?
Or are you just too comfortable in your apathy?
[Outro]
(Music intensifies, vocals become a raw, repeated scream)
WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!
(Guitar feedback swells, drums pound relentlessly, then abruptly cut off)
