Up and down like a rollercoaster
But it never ends
The highs get higher
The lows get lower
Until you can’t find a way back to the center
Live at the extremes
Until they concluded
That you are too dangerous
To be allowed to walk around
Gonna harm yourself
Or more importantly
Someone else
Further proof
That no one gives a shit about you
That they don’t care
If you live or die
As long as it doesn’t affect them
To them you are disposable
Oil to a motor
Water in their coffeemaker
The worst means to an end
Cause you can talk back
You can refuse to do the work
You can convince others to do the same
And that makes you a threat
A liability that needs to be dealt with
Yeah you can say I’m a cynic
But show me proof that I’m wrong
And I can change my opinion
Everyday it gets reinforced
Airplane is faulty and kills everyone on board
And we worry about the company that made them
More than the families of those who died
Virus threatens every life on earth
And we are more worried about the economy
Not anyone’s fucking life
As of the two aren’t linked
They need you to make things
That other people need to buy
It’s a simple as that
All you are is a mark to sell something to
Connect with your friends
So you can get bombarded with ads
For the shoes you looked at once
You life, your love, your identity
A series of data collected
To sell you something you don’t need
Like another politician saying they can fix the problem
By being part of the problem
Well I am sick of being sold to
I don’t want anything your selling
The constant talk about the economy
Is making me more depressed than I always am
