Defusing The Popular Struggle Lyrics

Defusing The Popular Struggle lyrics

Once lost we will never find our way

Shutting down we're devoid of things to say

Prospects are growing worse with every hour

With no voice it seems we've got no power



Overcome by headlines

We believe what isn't true

You've got no empathy for anyone but you

Our moral contradictions

And subjective, hollow tomes

Perpetuate the fear asphyxiating us at home so



Seems like there's no place left to hide

From the cold, amorphous dread

That we all feel inside

Actions might dictate who survives

The hopelessness which punctuates

Our empty lives



Could there be something

I need a reason

Could there be anything at all



Systems of technology which once kept us

Informed

Now endeavor to perpetuate the norm

Privatization of concentrated wealth

While millions still suffer

In dilapidated health so



Who cares to calculate

What indigence will cost

How will we replicated urbanity that's lost

The curtain falls on the ultimate disgrace

We hunger for equality

Though we've never had a taste



The irony will make you laugh

Intervene on our behalf

To undo this mask of false complicity



The despotic, right-wing government

Has manufactured our consent

Can we entrust ourselves

To transform their doctrine to dissent
