lyrics

Do you wake up feeling anxious
Do you wake up feeling tired
Do you wake up from a fever dream
Already feeling wired
When you rise up in the morning
Do you have to find a fix
Is there something in the cycle
Is there something that you missed
Is your stamina and ventilation
Keeping up with you
Now that you’re on a steady diet of the news

Are you fed up with the work week
Are you done with fire drills
Are you hoping for inheritance
To help you pay the bills
Do you hunger for distraction
From another nameless day
For your addiction to the headlines
It’s your spirit that will pay
Is your energy and circulation
Keeping pace with you
Now that you’re on a steady diet of the news

So you wake up in the morning
Check the updates on your phone
Read a nonexistent newspaper
Before you leave your home
All the experts have digested
All the news you need to know
So you feast on information
From your space radio
Have you found a strong provider
Who is customized for you
Now that you’re on a steady diet of the news

Are you looking for a conflict
Are you looking for a fight
If you’re lucky you will find one
On the local news tonight
And if you take a look within yourself
I think I know what you will find
A lot of useless information
A lot of emptiness inside
Before you know it you’ll be so far gone
You’ll have nothing left to lose
Now that you’re on a steady diet of the news
