lyrics

Don't talk to us you're skin and bones
We're scared to speak, or stand with clones
Intelligence is just a memory of things that you've been told
Use common sense don't break the mold
You're on the fence
Do as you're told
It is only a matter of time, before they lose control.

You try to take our choice (Our choice)
Identify through violence
While we destroy our voice (It's our voice)
They rule us all in silence now

Shot framed and hung
And you believe
Headline, description is all we see
Flame wars, defenders, cogs in machines
Defined by this moment
And hung on the screen

Tell the truth
No slight of hand or tongue in cheek
Clicks in demand creating sheep
We're on our knees at night
Praying to our screens before we sleep

You try to take our choice (Our choice)
Identify through violence
While we destroy our voice (It's our voice)
They rule us all in silence now

Shot framed and hung
And you believe
Headline, description is all we see
Flame wars, defenders, cogs in machines
Defined by this moment
And hung on the screen
And you believe
Headline, description is all we see
Flame wars, defenders, cogs in machines
Defined by this moment
And hung on the screen

Pushing through
Shutting us down
Until we find a way
To open our eyes

I
Will find
My voice
My time is now
This might mean war
Fight for what's mine
Now
This might mean war
Fight for what's mine
My time is now

Break the (Taking our choice)
Walls down (Answer with violence)
Take back (Destroying our voice)
Our crown (Rule us in silence)
Tear the (Rule us in silence)
Walls down (Rule us in silence)
My time (Rule us in silence)
Is now (Rule us in silence)
