Consume

Consume - consume it!
Peer pressure fears inside
Insecurities - trying to hide
Buying possessions, friendships too
Improve your image? It just falls through

Consume - you just use your green
Consume - to buy your way into a scene

Wrong impressions of what matters
Illusions can be easiliy shattered
Money talks - you just listen
Afraid to make your own decision

Consume - you just use your green
Consume - to buy your way into a scene

Consume consume wiith no thought
Gain respect with what you've bought
Empty headed - no idea
Your pretense is crystal clear

Consume - you just use your green
Consume - to buy your way into a scene

"Consumption without thought: that forms the basis of this 
song. Having to possess a certain thing because it will 
supposedly improve the quality of life or impress others is
 really a farce. But still materialism bites hard at all of
 us at times, whether it's household appliances, cars, 
houses, jewelery, clothes or even records, it all amounts 
to the same thing. Just having to own something because it 
might make us look better in the eyes of others is so 
superficial and shows what a sick society we live in. Sure,
 there are many items people need to have or just like 
having for pleasurable reasons, but when it becomes like a 

competition or an obsession to own things, it gets 
completely out of hand and greed takes control and the 
results of greed can lead anywhere, as greed is possibly at
 the root of many of the injustices that our society is 
bases upon. So be warned, money buys only a false position,
 no amount of wealth or possessions (be they fast cars or 
expensive band's t-shirts) really changes what you are 
inside."
