Indoctrination (A Design for Living) |
In times of great vexation |
When one must choose between what’s right and wrong |
Freedom, so they say, |
Amounts to the choices you have made |
Through all the arbitrary rationale concerning liberty |
Freedom, I must say, |
Exists within unconditioned minds |
Reason has come of age |
How can you be satisfied with things the way they are |
When all that surrounds us now and so much more |
Remains inside the keeper’s dark embrace? |
The insatiable thirst for power has made |
Idols out of mortals, gods into clay |
Soldiers into heros, children into slaves |
All damned |
Desires |
Their hopes betrayedWho will suffer the laws |
That State can decide your child’s education |
Unless you pay the price? |
Refrain (x2) |
Who will suffer their laws? |
Who will suffer their minds? |
Who will suffer their words? |
