lyrics
So we blast off into this abyss of life
that we've known forever
we wake up and realize
everything we've lived's a lie
and everyone's been watching us
the good, the bad, to their disgust
and we've been made to live in their sick, filthy little game
They set me up as a leader
not realizing I'm a sheep
being sent to the slaughter
and they're all following me
into death
to their demise
into torture
into the hurricane's eye
Hollywood has a hold on me
for the rest of my life I'll be dying to be free
Hollywood has a hold on me
All of my life I've been a puppet on their string
From the silver screen I'm controlled by the serpent king
The ruler of hollywood, he's quietly strangling me
as this boa constrictor makes the dark come quicker
the last thing I see are the pigs and goats approaching
Oh god
The animals are all lined up
