Saw it at age 14, here I’m 33 and still raging this song

They're Only Chasing Safety

It's Dangerous Business Walking Out Your Front Door

Define The Great Line

Writing On The Walls

[intro]

Welcome to the aisle of dreams.  
Where everything’s fresh, everything’s clean.  
Where the lights never flicker,  
And the shelves never lie.



They say it’s for your health.  

They say it’s for your family.  

They say it’s what you need.

But the truth is buried in the barcode.  
In the chemicals you can’t pronounce.  
In the HUNGER, that never ends...



You’re not shopping.  
You’re surrendering.  
And they’re counting every dollar  
As they feed you, the illusion.



[chorus]
I see the wires behind the smile  
The poison dressed in plastic
And that you sold me pain  
Now, I’m awake, to your game...  

No more silence, no more shame  
I’m not your puppet, not your prey  
I will rise above the psychology 
You used to sway the minds,
of the meek!
Escaping the illusion—  
I won’t play
Your, Games!

[Verse 1]

Neon signs flicker like a promise  
“Low fat,” “all natural”—you want this  
But the label’s just a mask for the toxin  
Wrapped in comfort, bought without understanding...

Cart full of lies, aisle of decay  
Sugar-coated death in your families food tray  
You trust the shelf, you trust the brand  
But they’ve got your soul, in their plastic hand  
Screens scream deals, they flood your brain  
Till you crave what’s killing you all over again,  
It’s not food—it’s control, it’s design...

[chorus]
I see the wires behind the smile  
The poison dressed in plastic
And that you sold me pain  
Now, I’m awake, to your game...  



No more silence, no more shame  
I’m not your puppet, not your prey  
I will rise above the psychology that
You used to sway, the minds,
of the meek!

Escaping the illusion
I won’t play
Your, Games!
