lyrics

All the tiny fingers of the Chinese children
Make my clothes that I wear
And I don't break the bank to be the height of fashing
'Cause I don't know or I don't care

So, if I do not know
I can't hear them cry
I can't hear them moan
If they catch my eye
I'll turn off my phone
Everybody dies, Everybody knows

Advertisers cater to my primal urges
I see sex, I feel free
Filling all the empty holes where my mind's stirring
Throws a wrench in my gears
And I remain perpetually insecure
But I fit in with my peers
We're all on our phones transfixed alone together
But my texts are sincere

So, if I'm feeling low
I can wield a lie easily from my phone
There's something I can buy or swipe if I'm alone
Everybody lies, Everybody knows

Everyday a multitude of small distractions
Keep my mind occupied
Everywhere I go a wall of tall attractions
Fix my gaze to the sky
If I were alone with just my thoughts incoming
I would be terrified
I am just a victim of the modern age
So I'm okay, I'm alright

So, do you like the show
I'll shut off my mind, I'll refuse to grow
I can shut my eyes, I can plug my nose
Everybody dies, Everybody knows
