Consume Lyrics - Polaris

Before we knew what we were missing 

Before we felt desire's sting 

We were content with what we had 

And never wanted for anything 

We know it's futile to compare 

Our culture was the culprit, we were taken unaware 

Manifest the weakness, a self-fulfilling prophecy 

Undermining every insecurity 

It's a fear growing deeper when no one's around 

Like a nagging aching sore 

The devil's in the detail, the truth inconsequential 

The idle mind is scrutinised and robbed of its potential in time 

Begging for redemption 

Pleading for solutions

We know we never should have had this cross to bear 

Our culture was the culprit, we were taken unaware 

We've been led to think we needed more 

(Resenting who we are) 

Only to find that we were better off before 

(Before we bought what we were sold, before we tried to fit the mould) 

We've been chasing false perfection 

Searching in the wrong direction 

This is the crux of our corruption 

Drawn into social seduction 

Manifest the weakness, a self-fulfilling prophecy 

Undermining every insecurity 

To fan the flame, to watch your pride burn away 

To reinforce the fear that taught us that we're never good enough
