Bombard me with empty platitudes
You're so afraid of saying the wrong thing
Your fear,
So palpable and clear
Your fear,
So palpable and clear
I watch you walk on eggshells
Dictated dogma, no need to think
Hold on so tight to your spoonfed beliefs
Carefully curated canned sentiments
Devoid of meaning and birthed from a script
Wear your uniform and cover up your fear
Wear your uniform and cover up your fear
Uncomfortable in your skin now that I'm here
So suit up, and follow thoughts and words pre-prescribed
Follow protocol
Put your mind at ease
Going through the motions, you're just here to please
Your fear controls you you're too afraid to think
Your fear controls you you're too afraid to speak
