Trapped inside the perpetuation of a consumer nation
Inside this box I can't change the situation
I need some breathing holes
We're the first so we eat three meals a day
When the third would be so lucky to have one
What can I say? It's a tragedy
There must be something that can be done
Consumer society consuming the lives of all the people who can barely stay alive
It's hear all over so we're all desensitized
To the reality of taking the lives of our neighbors overseas
But's reality so what can be done
Consumer society consuming the lives of all the people who can barely stay alive
I hear solutions from a million sources but none of them seem to make a dent
What can I do poke my breathing holes in this box I'm in 'cause
Consumer society consuming peoples' lives
And all they wanna do is simple stay alive while we thrive
