Lyrics Kill The Messenger - The Virginmarys

Kill The Messenger

Drown that mind so wild at war
And still there’s things you can’t ignore
Shoot the messenger
Kill the messenger
Force-fed fear washed down with shame
As history repeats again
Shoot the messenger
Kill the messenger
They’re in your dreams
They’re in your head
Beneath the sheets inside your bed
The influence is always passing through
They’re in the choice
They’re in the rules
They’re in the news inside the schools
They can’t be held responsible
Can’t be held responsible for you
On the brink upon the shelf
We think we think for ourselves
Shoot the messenger
Kill the messenger
A baby’s born the air is thin
We’re poisoning the oxygen
The righteous path is always how we do
Control behind a minister
Is something far more sinister
They can’t be held responsible
Can’t be held responsible for you
Kill the messenger
The time has come to stop the clocks
Find a key or pick the lock
It’s time to step outside the mind
Time to step outside the mind
They’re in your dreams
They’re in your head
Beneath the sheets inside your bed
The influence is always passing through
They’re in the choice
They’re in the rules
They’re in the news inside the schools
They can’t be held responsible
Can’t be held responsible for you
For you
