lyrics

Driven out of sanity by illusion’s cold embrace
While institutions shoveling narratives push the latest
In convenience and technology, re-scripting neural oddities
Sold as necessity, some new must-have distraction therapy

To amass, such frightening ignorance spread to a global scale
Requires a meticulous, mechanized fusion of wires and flesh
From the ever-willing masses
Eager to accept that which seems best to make them feel secure
Complete rewiring
Total and absolute disassembly of information process
The average citizen can but lust of such a power
To drive a herd of sheep as slaves to a hideous system

War is peace!
Freedom is slavery!
Ignorance is strength!
And resistance is futile!

Mass media weaponized through collusion of corporate gods
With ever-extending outlets, the screaming specialist mouthpiece
Now the propagandists are protagonists
Or so they say
Preaching revelations ordering:
Trust us, we know what’s best
Let troubling fears of insecurity wash away

Abandon one’s own creativity impulse
And instead, learn from celebrities pushed through garbage channels
Medicine to attain complacency in total inactivity
Apply directly to the brain
Stay asleep

To amass, such frightening ignorance spread to a global scale
Requires a meticulous, mechanized fusion of wires and flesh
From the ever-willing masses
Eager to accept that which seems best to make them feel secure
Total rewiring
A finely detailed dissolution of the human psyche
The grinding hate machine exists but to drive our species
Ever onward to a self-induced extinction
