Silver Screen

I see them up on the screen
 We all listen but they don't say anything
 They look so pretty and free
 But we can think when we are unplugged from the machine
 What a display
 We can't look away
 From the ones who get paid
 To stand on the stage
 And the people all watch
 Sit and witness in silence
 I get my own thoughts
 (I get my own thoughts)
 I don't need to be taught
 (I don't need to be taught)
 They don't know what I want
 (They don't know what I want)
 They can't have what I got
 (They can't have what I got)
 I get my own thoughts
 (I get my own thoughts)
 I don't need to be taught
 (I don't need to be taught)
 They don't know what I want
 (They don't know what I want)
 They can't have what I got
 (They can't have what I got)
 We can choose what we see on the silver screen
 We don't need this
 Turn it off, we won't eat all the lies they feed
 Watch what frees us
 We can choose what we see on the silver screen
 We don't need this
 Turn it off, we won't eat all the lies they feed
 Watch what frees us
 We can choose what we see on the silver screen
 We don't need this
 Turn it off, we won't eat all the lies they feed
 Watch what frees us
 What a display
 We can't look away
 From the ones who get paid
 To stand on the stage
 And the people all watch
 Sit and witness in silence
 I get my own thoughts
 (I get my own thoughts)
 I don't need to be taught
 (I don't need to be taught)
 They don't know what I want
 (They don't know what I want)
 They can't have what I got
 (They can't have what I got)
 I get my own thoughts
 (I get my own thoughts)
 I don't need to be taught
 (I don't need to be taught)
 They don't know what I want
 (They don't know what I want)
 They can't have what I got
 (They can't have what I got)
