Dancers To A Discordant System |
| Listen to the hidden tune |
| The essence of lies in notes defined |
| As we dance to the dissonant sway |
| The choreography refined |
| Will subdued and shackled |
| Reason washed aside |
| Pledging our love to the chains |
| Our ignorance ever-amplified |
| Bloodened hands lead the waltz |
| We’re trapped in the out-of-tune swirl |
| Still we set the show on continue mode |
| And dance to a discordant system |
| We accept the nails we’re fed |
| Lies sharpened to bleed us silent |
| Muted from the pains |
| Defiance employed in vain |
| Any attempts to leave the dance |
| Invisibly suppressed |
| Questions unasked, we learn the steps |
| Eyes shut like all the rest |
| Unsuspecting, willing, blind, controllable herd |
| Pawns in a covert game conducted by hands we trust |
| Dominated, compliant and deceptable |
| Confident that we matter — we don’t see that we’re but dust |
| Committed to a lie we cannot see, cannot know nor comprehend |
| We’re all asinine drones kept in the dark, kept in line |
| Confined, bereft of reason |
| Withering in toxicity |
| The deadly fumes of deceit |
| And we all reek of complicity |
| Humbled, brought to our knees |
| By the weight of our own guilt |
| Our nescient ways the catalyst |
| To injustice and inhumanity |
| We dance — to appease |
| Compete in stupidity |
| Obscured faces file our points |
| Numbers fed to the machine |
| Still we stand in line for the next show |
| The human spine liquefied |
| What are we, but stupefied |
| Dancers to a discordant system |
| We believe — so we’re misled |
| We assume — so we’re played |
| We confide — so we’re deceived |
| We trust — so we’re betrayed |
| We believe — so we’re misled |
| We assume — so we’re played |
| We confide — so we’re deceived |
| We trust — so we’re betrayed |
