"Nil By Mouth" lyrics

"Nil By Mouth"

This isn't right
What am I doing here?
I've never had to fight
To keep it running clear
This time I'm going under
But I don't know what's wrong
Something inside of me
It says I don't belong

And I don't care
What's on the television
Impaired your lack of vision
Bias feeds a new division
I don't care
About the new sensation
Pornographic exploitation
For the YouTube generation

A viral god
You're oh so superficial
A lighting rod
Silver bullet, tongue and pistol
A house of cards
I watch 'em fall
It's life on Mars
But you deserve to have it all

And I don't care
I've got your new prescription
Replace your old addiction
Yeah, I'll be your new affliction
I don't care
I've got the anaesthesia
To fix your paraplegia
Dumbed down they aim to please you

What would you do
If the world was watching you now
Would you sell your soul for a million views?
Hey give me the low down
What would you do
If they were watching you

Wrong time
Wrong place
Wrong name
Wrong face

Who's watching you
Who's watching you
