Research; I Wanna Know

Start and stop
Just start and stop
Ask, answer, and analyze
Ask them
And if they answer
Analyze

Combing through the tangled wires of a hard drive overheating
Here you come sticking your forked tongue deep into these schematics

We're all philosophical junkies
One way or another
Just some more than others

You say I think too much
I say you don't question yourself enough
Tell me what's worth living
A care free life
Swinging from a chandelier
Embarrassing the light
Forget the dark
Or is it within good reason
To drive one's self mad
Trying to make sense of the world
And their perception of it

Who's going to take a stand
For the cynical and ironic
The irate and sarcastic
They lead you to believe change in the system only happens from the inside
Bullshit, you just want us back in your grasp
Lack of imagination will be our plight

Have you ever thought of a world without
Capitalism
Religion
Government
It's like you have your head in the sand
Your neck too weak to lift it out
Stay dormant

So yeah man
Just start and stop
Ask
Answer
Analyze
