Story behind the song
Contrived reality tv. It just irks me.
Lyrics
Brain Dead, underneath the notion that the best thing is not to know Silence, quiet affirmation that your head got stuck in a hole But it's nice here, can I stay a little longer, I've got no better place to go Lock the doors dear, I can't listen to the screaming no more Just like paper in rain Your conscience slowly erodes Don't you give up the ghost now honey We've got a long way to go It's a slow ride down the road of madness and there is no end to the road Are the lights on? Are the cameras rolling? I've got tons more souls to be sold I've got a story, but it's gonna cost you and I don't take credit or gold Listen up dear, I've got some bad news for you - It seems the ratings went cold Like a shot to the head You find that life's not a show Don't you give up the ghost now honey We've got a long way to go (You can rest when you're dead) There's a stone with faded writing On a grave with browning green And the words, simple and poetic Say "Here lies the American dream" Douse the vanishing sun As the scence fades out slow We've got a long way to go now honey Don't you give up the ghost
