Santa Lucia ft. Child Actor Lyrics

We were born and told that all our dreams would come true

Disney taught us how to make believe and consume

Wanna fuck, do drugs and dance to pretty pop tunes

While the planet burns around us

I lost my eyesight, more than a couple of times

Tried to find it, wound up stuck in the same life

Lost my eyesight, more than a couple of times

Tried to fight it, wound up stuck

Another Zoom funeral invite

Hard to count the bodies on the screen

Further we get separated from each other

More it seems we live in post-reality

Post-reality, post-reality

Listen, this ain't even really happening

Easier to navigate a fantasy

Post-reality, post-reality

Post-reality, post-reality

Listen, this ain't even really happening

Easily distracted from the tragedy

Hand out fame like food stamps

Tech corporations call it content

Make us sing and dance and make the people laugh

For table scraps and we're so content

We were born and taught to worship many idols

Deadbeat forefathers and psychopathic tycoons

We can play but don't forget who owes the game, fool

Take some time to think about the ways they play you

Lost my eyesight, more than a couple of times

Tried to find it, wound up stuck in the same life

Lost my eyesight, more than a couple of times

Tried to find it, wound up stuck

So on the nose, so what, I know

No metaphor necessary, gotta write clearly

Sometimes for the couple people that'll hear me

Barely living and I hardly even pray

But if Saint Lucy helps me see

Maybe I can find my way

But her eyes are in a golden plate

And I've been stuck inside a place that turned me into prey

Predatory power trippers, stripping flesh

Off anything that we create

Wanna watch you give birth

Watch you have fun, we don't call it work

Wanna watch it when you cum, watch you get hurt

Wanna watch your body buried in the dirt

More than a couple of times

More than a couple of times

More than a couple of times
