welcome to the desert of the real

they tell you what they want you to hear
they feed you what they want you to believe
when all they do is play on all your fears
denying you the right to be free

welcome
to the desert of the real
when all's said and done
nothing is as it feels

but you're plugged in too deep
connected to everything they've sold you
you feel like you wont wake up from this sleep
all hopes are getting far and few

welcome
to the desert of the real
everything's made up of ones and nones
nothing's old and nothing's new

its ironic you cant sleep at night
you're afraid of the knock on your door
the inner demons that you fight
that keeps you pinned down on the floor

welcome
to the desert of the real
the choice is now right before you
will it be the blue or red pill

welcome
to the desert of the real
