Lyrics (Another) 1984 - Billy Squier

(Another) 1984

From over the air comes a voice without care
Says were doin all right
But day out and day in from what hes been sayin
Were in for a fight
I glance at myself and the world rushin by I can see for myself and the fear comes alive
Shades of termination--were dyin to survive
Machine is the mind--it will rule by design
So youre never alone
We store information without confirmation
Accept the unknown
I think to myself of the times we have tried
To be true to ourselves and to live with the lie
Avoid the contradictions--just keep yourself alive
I cant help it… i cant help it… i cant help it…
Life is your decision--we choose to do or die
Can you live with the reality of 1985
Polite conversation aint no consolation
For blanks in your eyes
Amidst the confusion there lives the illusion
That love will survive
But I got a chance with myself if I try
To be sure of myself and myself choose to try
Fight for stimulation and love to stay alive
