Clickbait

False headlines full of lies To keep us entertained Promises made to lure you in Yet nothing gained Draw you in like vultures To a pile of rotting meat The snare is set in bold lettering As we swallow the deceit So naive So easily deceived So ignorant Fall for all the tales they weave They mislead They speak and every word we heed Hearing only what we think we need We take the clickbait Follow as they lead With every word they captivate We blindly follow their trail like human sheep Never awake always asleep Twisting people's words and then They pour them in your ears In with the lies, out with the truth All facts just disappear Spoken thoughts are mangled Into ones you never meant All distorted Corrupting all intent So naive So easily deceived So ignorant Fall for all the tales they weave They mislead They speak and every word we heed Hearing only what we think we need We take the clickbait Follow as they lead With every word they captivate We blindly follow their trail like human sheep Never awake always asleep Our journalistic masters Command and we obey Fall in line like lemmings That feed these birds of prey Do as we say not as we do Stop thinking on your own Scream for more red meat While gnawing on the bone So naive So easily deceived So ignorant Fall for all the tales they weave They mislead They speak and every word we heed Hearing only what we think we need We take the clickbait Follow as they lead With every word they captivate We blindly follow their trail like human sheep Never awake always asleep

I am the years of death and dying I tear with gripping teeth I prey upon all the weary eliminate the weak Not a day in your life passes when you won’t think of me No thought and prayers can save you So get up off of your knees When I sense a weakness I move in with blazing speed Mothers, brothers, fathers and sons it matters not to me Chorus I’m a force of nature pure and sure I’ve killed through all of time When a GALE force wind blows through you you’ll know that you are mine I am legend, I’m your end you’ll wither when I’m near I’m the years of death and dying the sum of all your fears You may have had a brush with me escaped and saved yourself Most likely I was occupied with killing someone else Legends fall when I come to call as I plan my next attack PETTY things won’t matter just ask THE MAN IN BLACK The RAGE is gone and so is BON so young in their demise I ended the ERUPTION I took them in their prime Repeat chorus Solo Gary Solo Lee I cull the herd with no remorse taking souls along the WAY I’m here to set the balance of all you have to pay I turned ZIGGY into STARDUST I’ve been killing ever since I took an EAGLE from the sky I even killed a PRINCE Struck down the QUEEN Bid FAREWELL TO KINGS I took the ANGEL OF DEATH I’m always at the ready to take away your breath Repeat Chorus
