Lyrics & Translation
Stop, stop! See the sign - Can't you all read, don't cross the line
Go for whatever, lust for the better - We're all so goddamn hypnotized
Chop, chop! Spread the lies - Don't you blame me, you're mesmerized
Birds of a feather flocking together - Join the hell, here we're one of a kind
Bias, paranoia - Floating in the air
Empty sham detractors - They don't even care
Another one falling down - Drowning in the vertigo
Going mad with the crowd - Buzzing with his libido
Now they're all looking for a new stimulation - Next revelation
See them go for the same fabrication - Discrimination, classification
Jolly internet masturbation - Agitation, allegation, suffocation, aggravation
All through the nation - Termination, extermination - Deflagration with no destination
Bias, paranoia - Floating in the air
Dead to shame imposters - Do they even care
Another one falling down - Drowning in the vertigo
Going mad with the crowd - Buzzing with her libido
You're one of them now
"You're one of us now"
[Music]
So pick one random someone for your enemy - Click one random button for your ecstasy
Aim and prey, escape too late, can't run from me - Burn in flames, unsay too late, now you're going down
Another one falling down - Drowning in the vertigo
Going mad with the crowd - Buzzing with his libido
Another one falling down - Drowning in the vertigo
Going mad with the crowd - Buzzing with her libido
You're one of them now
"You're one of us now"
