Silver Screen

I see them up on the screen We all listen but they don't say anything They look so pretty and free But we can think when we are unplugged from the machine What a display We can’t look away From the ones who get paid To stand on the stage And the people all watch Sit and witness in silence I get my own thoughts I don’t need to be taught They don’t know what I want They can’t have what I’ve got I get my own thoughts I don’t need to be taught They don’t know what I want They can’t have what I’ve got We can choose what we see on the silver screen We don’t need this Turn it off, we won’t eat all the lies they feed Watch what frees us We can choose what we see on the silver screen We don’t need this Turn it off, we won’t eat all the lies they feed Watch what frees us We can choose what we see on the silver screen We don’t need this Turn it off, we won’t eat all the lies they feed Watch what frees us What a display We can’t look away From the ones who get paid To stand on the stage And the people all watch Sit and witness in silence I get my own thoughts I don’t need to be taught They don’t know what I want They can’t have what I’ve got I get my own thoughts I don’t need to be taught They don’t know what I want They can’t have what I’ve got
