Oh, life tastes sweet but don't bite too deep
The sugar melts fast and the poison runs deep
Smile for the crowd, stay in disguise
And take a big bite of the candy lies
They told you it's perfect, no cracks, no seams
But even nightmares can look like dreams
They call it freedom, but it's just a game
Wrapped in ribbons to hide the chains
The air's perfume, but it's hard to breathe
Your golden tickets just make believe
The water sparkles, but it's laced with lead
They'll sell you hope while the truth drops dead
Keep scrolling down, don't look too long
Just hum along to their perfect song
It's all by design, just keep in line
They say you're free, but they own your time
Take a bite of the candy lies
Sweet on your tongue, but it burns inside
Sugar-coated dreams keep the world alive
But the cracks run deep where the glitter hides
They built this world on a sugar high
But when it crumbles, don't ask why
They'll print your future in neon lights
But the colors fade when you get too bright
Your feed's a circus, your life's a blur
But they're cashing in while you defer
The rent's too high, but that's the deal
They've got mansions to buy off the dreams you steal
The lines are drawn, but the ink is fake
Just keep on smiling for their sake
They'll call you crazy if you start to see
The bars of the cage they've built for free
Take a bite of the candy lies
Sweet on your tongue, but it burns inside
Sugar-coated dreams keep the world alive
But the cracks run deep where the glitter hides
They built this world on a sugar high
But when it crumbles, don't ask why
Do you taste it now? The bitterness bites
The sweet facade won't survive the night
The cracks are growing, the seams unwind
And the candy shell crumbles in your mind
They'll call it progress, they'll call it pride
But all they've done is let the poison slide
Keep your head down, just play your part
While they sell the world as a work of art
The sugar dissolves and the truth breaks through
Exposing the lies that they sold to you
Take a bite of the candy lies
Sweet on your tongue, but it burns inside
Sugar-coated dreams keep the world alive
But the cracks run deep where the glitter hides
Drink it down, let the poison flow
The truth was buried, but now we know
Burn the sugar, melt the disguise
The world's waking up from its candy lies
They thought we'd stay blind, thought we'd comply
But the cracks and the glitter can't lie
The candy melts, the mask will fall
The truth breaks free and consumes it all
No more glitter, no sweetened guys
The bitter truth shatters candy lies
So take your fill, but don't forget
The sweetest dreams leave the deepest regret
