lyrics

Safety is what we are promised.
Please tell me it will be alright.
Big Brother is watching out for us.
When something’s wrong, he’s here to make it right.

Please Tell Me
We Are Fine.
Spent My Life Walking lines.
Tell Me Please
We Are Safe.
Wasted Time Barely Alive (to see).

Bred for extinction, our people on their last breath.
One by one innocence to the abyss.
We shrink in numbers, the strange ones grow in size.
Just take a deep breath, step back, close your eyes.

The Safety Net Failed Us.
So what was the Point of standing straight up
For the Power that controlled us.
When in the End
They were nowhere to be found.

How Can They Do This?
They Can Not Just Leave.
The Eye In The Sky Has Been Shut Down.
So Where’s the backup?
The Scapegoat?
There’s no value for the price tag on your throat.

Please Tell Me
We Are Fine.
Spent My Life Walking lines.
Tell Me Please
We Are Safe.
Wasted Time Barely Alive (to see)

Hope buried inside us.
Wasting our time Finding a way out.
No exit from extinction.
Blind, clinging to freedom.
Death is the cure.
Our world is ending.

It’s about fucking time.

Hopeless, humanity struggles to survive.
On the brink of extinction is where our people lie.
Broken, battered the strange ones almost won.
The jig is up, looks like our time has come
Hopeless, humanity struggles to survive.
On the brink of extinction is where our people lie.
Billions to millions, millions to thousands.
No one left themselves was the allowance.

Forcing You to be like everyone else.
Their fierce grip tightening, your dreams start to melt.
Forging stories just to make excuses.
You are the only one that picks and chooses.

The strangers are government.
Force you to walk the line.
Destroy what’s truly inside.
Fight back don’t take their side.
Unleash your true potential.
Life is lived only once.
This is your only chance.
It is time to make a stance.

Led by strangers to extinction.
Their followers have no distinction.
Better off dead, than a captive.
You have to be the one to make it happen.
