Slave to Our Kind Lyrics

Drink in your newfound celebrity

You've dreamed this would come around

Post-modern earthbound deity

Living in the cloud

You are a product of wasted years

Now able to touch the sun

Tuned into you, a wall of ears

Your fifteen minutes have begun

Turn the air blue

They adore you

Hurt a friend or two

They want more from you

Try to be true

They abhor you

Try to be you

They just ignore you

They gather for miles around

As you lose your mind for free

My friend, you're a slave to our kind

Indefinitely, yeah

You've thrown aside all humility

And swollen up with pride

You've compromised your identity

For the service you provide

The acid rises, the bile spills

Demands that you're not meeting

Accustom yourself to how it feels

For those oh so precious ratings

Turn the air blue

They adore you

Hurt a friend or two

They want more from you

Try to be true

They abhor you

Try to be you

They just ignore you

They gather for miles around

As you lose your mind for free

My friend, you're a slave to our kind

Indefinitely (indefinitely)

You cannot risk phasing out

The hivemind you must please

You fool, you're a slave to our kind

Eternally, yeah

Tap the vein of insanity

To quell the great unwashed

Momentous popularity

But at what cost?

Your mind's been lost

You're a breakthrough

Without a damn clue

Rose-tinted addicts are there to revere you

You're a breakthrough

Right out of the blue

Thousands dying to live through your worldview

They gather for miles around

As you lose your mind for free

My friend, you're a slave to our kind

Indefinitely

You cannot risk phasing out

The hivemind you must please

You fool, you're a slave to our kind

Eternally, yeah

Eternally

Eternally

Yeah
