[Verse 1]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

So naïve

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

[Chorus]

We take the clickbait

Follow as they lead

With every word the captivate

We blindly follow

Their trail like human sheep

Never awake, always asleep

[Guitar Solo: Gary Holt]

[Verse 2]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

So naïve

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

[Chorus]

We take the clickbait

Follow as they lead

With every word the captivate

We blindly follow

Their trail like human sheep

Never awake, always asleep

[Guitar Solo: Lee Altus]

[Verse 3]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

So naïve

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

[Chorus]

We take the clickbait

Follow as they lead

With every word the captivate

We blindly follow

Their trail like human sheep

Never awake, always asleep
