Songtext von RIGHT NOW

How did everybody suddenly get so devoted to bullshit? Every day we try to swallow the ocean It's getting harder to cope with all the ignorance and Do you remember back when everybody used to be human? Before we were branded and commodified Categorized to monetize us Reduce it all down to what can be sold The elevator sales pitch black hole Explain it to me like I'm five years old Make me rich and powerful I volunteered, the convenience is too hard to resist I'm too entertained to remember what I miss This is the feeling of right now You want to quit, but you don't know how So if you're looking for a way out Stay up and don't let the bastards get you down But I've never been more connected Another fake face with a smile I find it's better if I just accept it So I take my place with the hypocrites Don't pretend I ever had a choice in that When you live in two dimensions Of course the world is flat This is the feeling of right now You want to quit, but you don't know how So if you're looking for a way out Stay up and don't let the bastards get you down Do you ever marvel at the arbitrary places people plant their flags? Blind to all the ways in which their actions violate their moral claims Well, I for one am tired of complying while the algorithm hacks our brains I promise you I'm never gonna buy it if you promise me I'm not insane I don't know This is the feeling of right now (stay up, stay up) You want to quit, but you don't know how (stay up, stay up) So if you're looking for a way out (stay up, stay up, stay up) Stay up and don't let the bastards get you down
