lyrics

You've been shut down
waiting for an answer
dying light and wound up machines
a static life, this gift bestowed upon you
such gratitude for the riches you paid

O can you hear, hear the solution?
a facile call, not to be questioned
clutch onto proud, proud wilful ignorance
make like a lamb in a puerile brigade
a servant, self-relegated


A black X scrawled
a new state of scripted control
a black X

A black X scrawled
and payback for your misery?
you'll say, say yes

A black X scrawled
for a new state of scripted control
and payback for your misery?
you'll say, say yes

A black X scrawled
and to their questions, a wall of silence
make believe that you can't be sold
you'll grovel under chosen ruler


In counterfeit fatigues they came collecting
disgorging lines of a shameless decree
a pledge of violence unveiled your true cowardice
acting out in the cocoon of the gang

Another vote cast, cast for domination
you've had to struggle, so no one gets off easy?
no inoculation from regimes of punishment
get back in your place, in the comfort of pain
a masochistic view to run all societies


A bit part in a baron's crusade
such craven voices in a chorus of hate
the scapegoat changes, but the mission's the same


A black X

A black X

A black X scrawled
for a new state of scripted control
and payback for your misery?
you'll say, say yes

A black X scrawled
and to their questions, a wall of silence
make believe that you can't be sold
you'll grovel under chosen ruler
