Verse 1
Staring at the ballot with a hollow brain
Seven tenths of voters find the face that's plain
Pick the winning jawline in a single second flat
We are nothing but the monkeys under Sunday hats
Kids see the leader
Kids name the king
Ancient Greek spirits see the damage that it bring
It brings the storm to the door
While we're begging for more
Pre-Chorus
Looking for the captain who can steer the ship
But we pick the loud mouth with a honeyed lip
System one is firing in the lizard soul
System two is dying while we lose control
Losing control
Chorus
Give us doxa give us lies
Dust inside the people's eyes
Empty promises and vanity
Running toward insanity
We love the ghost in the machine
Living in the screen
Yeah we love the screen
Verse 2
Stare into the sun of the sophist speech
Reach for the heights that the experts teach
Knowledge takes a lifetime just to understand
But the mob wants a miracle to heal the land
Dunning Kruger blooming in the city street
Walking to the rhythm of a steady defeat
Steady defeat
Pre-Chorus
Looking for the captain who can steer the ship
But we pick the loud mouth with a honeyed lip
System one is firing in the lizard soul
System two is dying while we lose control
Losing control
Chorus
Give us doxa give us lies
Dust inside the people's eyes
Empty promises and vanity
Running toward insanity
We love the ghost in the machine
Living in the screen
Yeah we love the screen
Bridge
Plato saw the collapse in the market place
Power going to the winner with a friendly face
First the demo crumbles then the strongman stands
Trading every freedom for the iron hands
Iron hands
Empty lands
Chorus
Give us doxa give us lies
Dust inside the people's eyes
Empty promises and vanity
Running toward insanity
We love the ghost in the machine
Living in the screen
Yeah we love the screen
Hook
Believe the show
Believe the show
The Navigator is alone
We are far from home
Far from home
