Listen to the hidden tune |
|
The essence of lies in notes defined |
|
As we dance to the dissonant sway |
|
The choreography refined |
|
Will, subdued and shackled |
|
Reason washed aside |
|
Pledging our love to the chains |
|
Our ignorance ever amplified |
|
Blooded hands lead the waltz |
|
We're trapped in the out of tune swirl |
|
Still we set the show on continue mode |
|
And dance to a discordant system |
|
We accept the nails we're fed |
|
Lies sharpened to bleed us silent |
|
Muted from the pains |
|
Defiance employed in vain |
|
Any attempts to leave the dance |
|
Invisibly suppressed |
|
Questions unasked, we learn the steps |
|
Eyes shut like all the rest |
|
Unsuspecting, willing, blind, controllable herd |
|
Pawns in a covert game conducted by hands we trust |
|
Dominated, compliant and deceptible |
|
Confident that we matter, we don't see that we're but dust |
|
Committed to a lie we cannot see |
|
Cannot know nor comprehend |
|
We're all asinine drones |
|
Kept in the dark, kept in line |
|
Confined, bereft of reason |
|
Withering in toxicity |
|
The deadly fumes of deceit |
|
And we all reek of complicity |
|
Humbled, brought to our knees |
|
By the weight of our own guilt |
|
Our nascent ways, the catalyst |
|
To injustice and inhumanity |
|
We dance to appease |
|
Compete in stupidity |
|
Obscured faces file our points |
|
Numbers fed to the machine |
|
Still we stand in line for the next show |
|
The human spine liquefied |
|
What are we but stupefied |
|
Dancers to a discordant system |
|
We believe, so we're misled |
|
We assume, so we're played |
|
We confide, so we're deceived |
|
We trust, so we're betrayed |
|
We believe, so we're misled |
|
We assume, so we're played |
|
We confide, so we're deceived |
|
We trust, so we're betrayed |
