Verse 1
Hardened smiles on plastic faces
The neon gods lurk in empty places
Preach psychobabble with serpent tongues
While we choke on what we’ve become
Pre-Chorus
Selling dreams along cracked glass
We bleed belief, they watch and laugh
Chorus
This is the cage, this is the spin
These are the falsities we live in
Raise your fists, tear through the veil
The tempest we are, gripped us by the tail.
Verse 2
Striding blind through scripted days
Fed on fear and moral haze
Tinfoil crowns and shadow kings
Dances the waltz on our suffering
Bridge (slow, grinding build)
Burn the longhand , rewrite more lies
Truth’s not dead—it’s weaponized
We are not what they define
The inner rage makes us divine
Final Chorus (double-time, full throttle)
This is the cage, this is the spin
These are the falsities we live in
Raise your voice, ignite the flame
We are the ones they’ll never blame
Outro (spoken, distorted)
Falsities circle the drain
We stand, we reign
