"...most men and women will grow up to love their servitude and will never dream of revolution." - Aldous Huxley
false sense of security
underneath this blanket of fear
so content and so complacent
(turn a blind eye to their tears)
unwilling to question
the established truths
a history written by the victors
built on broken bones and shattered lives
FED ON LIES
(we're) BRED TO BLEED AND DIE
FED ON LIES
(we're) BRED TO BLEED AND DIE
TO BLEED AND DIE
tune out
buy in
the consumer has become the consumed
marching on to the killing fields
feed the masses
(the consumer has become the consumed)
this is our future encased in this casket
buried six feet deep
(under our hopes and dreams)
slaves to all that we have become
our blood powers the machine
we will stand
we will fight
we will not bow to these new gods
of power and gold
a new world order
armed to the teeth
(keep the faithful caged)
face the firing squad
set fire to the system
(rotten from the inside out)
as olympus falls
