We rely on subtle points
And stabs at biting humor
To reveal our tired roles
Of slave and domination

Who did you enlighten today?
Humiliate to sell your point of view
Create an image for mass consumption
Insecurity as intellect

See your soul in your eyes
Hope your trophies will not mind

I'm sick of this grain of salt
That I must take you with
I wanna lash out but I bite my lip
The talk gets older and the lines get stale
Your chance at godliness has already failed

You can't deny
Your thirst and drive
For your time in the spotlight

Why are you so damned sure
That you shut your friends out
I have learned to shut out every hateful word

You'll never see the friends you've lost
From behind your transparent mask

I haven't grown to hate you
I've just grown to forget you

You label me class rank and station
Your intellectual masturbation
You're absolutely intoxicated
By your own mouth running in circles
Your tongue always tends to lose it
Every chance you get you abuse it
You have now spent a lifetime
Killing time
Killing time
Tow the line

But your ego is drawn out for you
Throw your intellect like a brick
To make others feel so small
The more that you repeat
And the louder that you scream
The more that you are killing time

It's time

I'm sick and tired of your reaction
Sick and tired of your reaction
Sick and tired of your reaction
Why don't you shut the fuck up

When you discover just how easy it is to impress
Without demanding all the attention for no reason maybe you'll believe me
Your own will to power has come back to haunt you
Your own will to power has come back to haunt you
