Consumed

"The more i own my life will improve"
just proves the consumer's become the consumed
consumed by possessions a hunger is fed
but those who died with the most toys
are still fucking dead

"why do i drive? so i can get to my job
and i go to my job so i can pay for my car"
well why own just one car when you can own two?
is this freedom to you, being owned by your possessions?
it's a human desire
to want more than you can use
and this need only proves
this obsession's your oppression

i own so many things
i don't know what to do with my life
my electronics, my car, and my job
mean more to me than my kids and my wife
you're selling me this? how can i resist?
a solution to a problem that just doesn't exist
well hold on a second this is fucking absurd
to believe these status symbols will determine my worth

"my worth" is worthless
