Disinformation Overload

Raiders recognized our weakness
They saw we were exposed
We left our front door open
While our minds were tightly closed

They simply used our anger
At those who disagree
To divide and conquer
Preying on our vanity

We were glued to our phones
So they flooded the zone

Disinformation overload
Disinformation overload
The truth got tossed by the side of the road
Disinformation overload

I click on a headline
And share with a remark
I'm rolling with the bots and trolls
And swimming with the sharks

You click on that headline
Now your rage begins to rise
We're only serving someone
Who would benefit from our demise

We place our faith in our phones
We help to flood the zone

Disinformation overload
Disinformation overload
The truth got tossed by the side of the road
Disinformation overload

We are useful idiots
When we get our news
From social media
Real journalists follow rules
Real journalists follow rules

Disinformation overload
Disinformation overload
The truth got tossed by the side of the road
Disinformation overload
