We Became

They come at me with pitchforks and torches 
I guess I'm the monster they picked tonight
They don't give a fuck about you
That's why you're here and they're not
To them you're just another dollar sign, another follower for their ranks
Brainless and obedient, you don't care if they see you as flesh and bone
So go ahead and hunt me because you're disposable
I'll be you next week
They're going to send your children to war
Your subculture has become your religion
They don't need to be worried about getting to know you
You post it all online and your phones always listening
To focus better ads on you and your wallet
They're going to send your baby to war
And you'll let them because they hide behind military honor
When really there was never any
Tell me the glory in killing someone you've never met for the puppeteer
I'd love to hear how great you make mayhem and genocide sound
Sell me it, they've already sold me everything else
They want a return to the old days of yore before "corrupted youth"
But I see that vision riddled with killers
What's fashionable and trending?
Yesterday it's drugs, today it's guns
The special interest groups will sell you an agenda wrapped in change
But somethings not quite right
Even now you're in denial
