FEED THE BEAST

So much information

Sweeps across the nation now

(Decisions made behind closed doors)

 

Inside this fascination

We’ve turned our eyes away from love and truth

(We’re always hungry for more)

 

Standing in line

Just biding our time

Instinctively we know

(We’ve got to change this world)

 

Straight to the Head

Communications we’re fed

Can’t you see? 

You and me

We’re left without a choice…

We just Feed The Beast

Chorus

Welcome to the Network

We’re always online

Welcome to the System

That leaves no one behind

Once inside the Matrix

Dreams will come true

You’re in all of us

We’re in all of you…

In this Land of Milk and Honey

Too much fame and money

But we know

(We need to change our ways)

 

Where’s our faith or inspiration?

Who controls this situation?

(Dig down deep before we lose it all)

 

Waiting in line

One step at a time

Our patience’s wearing thin

Still we close our eyes

Believing the lies they sell

To you and me

Can’t you see?

We just Feed The Beast

 

Welcome to the Network

We’re always online

Welcome to the System

That leaves no one behind

Once inside the Matrix

Dreams will come true

You’re in all of us

We’re in all of you…

 

Welcome to the Network

We’re always online

Welcome to the System

That leaves no one behind

Once inside the Matrix

Dreams will come true

You’re in all of us

We’re in all of you…

Spiritual passage

 

(Girls background)

We keep dreaming

Wake up screaming

No one hears us now

All we can do…

Is take a bow.

 

Welcome to the Network

We’re always online

Welcome to the System

That leaves no one behind

Once inside the Matrix

Dreams will come true

You’re in all of us

We’re in all of you…

 

(We’ll go along for the ride

But when machines decide

We cease to exist.)
