The Legacy of the Lie

from InBetweenTheLines by P.O.Box

/

lyrics

Your whole life you’re told that you can decide for yourself,
But one day, you just wake up and realize
The lie in which you lay,
Freedom is a lie.
A poll, a vote, will never change our society.

You live consciously in a slave system
And know the enemy controlling your mind.
Open the book and read,
Keep a low profile.
Democracy made a mistake in 1933.

They tell you what to think and what to do,
I don’t know why you trust them through
What they think and what they do.
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.

They show you what to think and what to do,
I still hope you’ll change your mind through
What I think and what I do.
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.

Mass propaganda occupies the field,
You decide to forget, sweet unconsciousness.
Do not think but consume,
Fill up your cart.
Will you ever wake up as a proud citizen?

Millions of casualties to impose their views,
Money is power and we got no money.
No worry about it,
That’s fake democracy.
Civil Disobedience should rule that society.

They tell you what to think and what to do,
I don’t know why you trust them through
What they think and what they do.
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.

They show you what to think and what to do,
I still hope you will change your mind through
What I think and what I do.
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.





Please someone, stop that comedy.
New rules for mental slavery.
This is no story.


Anaesthetize and occupy,
Power’s mechanism is smoothly built.
Deaden in opulence
(of) That sweet democracy
(you) Don’t even realize how much headsman are free.

You pay the price of your boredom,
Propaganda is a loaded weapon.
Hopeless piracy,
Cause this is a tyranny.
Kill the pain, and kill the chains, be their enemy.

They tell you what to think and what to do,
I don’t know why you trust them through
What they think and what they do.
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.

They show you what to think and what to do,
I still hope you’ll change your mind through
What I think and what I do.
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you.

Please someone, stop that comedy.
New rules for mental slavery.
This is no story.
