Welcome to the New Dark Ages, Part 2
We're all just pawns In a game that we were born to lose Where those who make the laws can break all the rules And play us for fools Certain that no-one will hold them accountable They serve the law to the letter That and no further Morally bankrupt in word and in deed Faceless enforcers, servants of order No-one is watching the watchmen They do as they please Do as they say (not as they do) Learn to obey your masters One rule for them (and another for you) The beatings will continue... No matter what you do The cruelty is the point There is no excuse You have the right to stay silent Meek and compliant If you've nothing to hide then you've nothing to fear Do as they say (not as they do) Learn to obey your masters One rule for them (and another for you) The beatings will continue... We've learned to love our shackles And lick their boots with grateful tongues Sycophantic soldiers of the static status quo Programmed to preserve the social order they uphold Their authority grants them immunity From all consequence That's how they keep their control With their knees on our necks and their boots on our thoats Laughing as they tighten the rope Judged by the ignorant Praised for their vigilance No-one is innocent now Do as they say (not as they do) Learn to obey your masters One rule for them (and another for you) The beatings will continue... Until morale improves!

Man is just an animal Driven by his basest instincts The need to feed, the urge to breed, and multiply Selfish and irrational, insatiable and cruel We only care, for when and where Our next meal will be due But as demand increases Supply must grow to meet it We'll sacrifice the weakest And let the market decide Who should live and who should die Tender is the flesh, sweeter is the marrow Bitter is the taste of what we do to see tomorrow Domesticated death, keeps the product pure So will you be the butcher or the carcass? We're all just cannibals Consuming our own kind Compulsive carnivores with only one thing on our minds With automated appetites we keep our bellies full We've seized the means of reproduction Breeding cattle for the cull From the cradle to the table It's a necessary evil, we must accept There's always money to be made And mouths that must be fed Grinding bones to make our bread Tender is the flesh, sweeter is the marrow Bitter is the taste of what we do to see tomorrow Domesticated death, keeps the product pure So will you be the butcher or, the carcass on the killing floor? We are what we eat Over and over the cycle repeats One day you're the butcher The next day you're just meat Tender is the flesh, sweeter is the marrow Bitter is the taste of what we do to see tomorrow Domesticated death, keeps the product pure So will you be the butcher or the carcass? On the killing floor

Abandon hope (who enters here) This is the new golgotha Which all men know to fear (and good men greet with horror) This is the place where mercy dies And anything is justified The punishment exceeds the crime But still we call it justice Whip the mob into a frenzy, wind them up and let them loose Peel away the tattered moral fabric to expose the ugly truth That this is who we really are, beneath our civilised facade Mindless masses, driven to madness, lusting for our pound of flesh A public execution, live on every screen Voyeuristic retribution, keeps our guilty conscience clean Are you not satisfied? Are you not entertained? By the public spectacle of our daily dose of hate Hate - is a hideous ecstasy Hate - of fear and depravity Hate - our collective insanity Moral panic, cruel and manic Hate - is the absence of empathy Hate - and the cause of our enmity Hate, is a cage, for the mind A public execution, live on every screen Voyeuristic retribution, keeps our guilty conscience clean Are you not satisfied? Are you not entertained? By the public spectacle of our daily dose of hate This is your daily dose of hate White bear - no rest for the wicked, no peace for the damned White bear - the mob is a beast, with blood on its hands White bear - no mercy for those who show none themselves White bear - we are all monsters now, and this is our hell
