Opium |
Lost in the haze so far away how can we get back home |
Lost in the haze so far away who’s going to guide us home |
I’ve struggled to get near it to backwards engineer it |
But all i find is a smoke and mirror game |
The recondite monopolise the airwaves |
Till all believe there is no other way |
And this is how we live our lives our opium is televised |
Till finally they watch us fade away |
Our lifeless generation is going to the wall |
A languid demonstration of daze before a fall |
A preconceived condition imagined long ago |
But will we ever know all that lies below |
They’ll print it on the front page to synthesise an outrage |
But all we find is a decoy once again |
Duplicity and trickery surround us |
Till all believe there is no other way |
And this is how we fall asleep their opium is running deep |
Till finally they watch us fade away |
Our lifeless generation is going to the wall |
A languid demonstration of daze before a fall |
A preconceived condition imagined long ago |
But will we ever know all that lies below |
Waiting to play are we the pawns in this game |
Paving the way watching the kings make their claim |
Martyrs and spies although we don’t realise |
Falling away under the watch of their eyes |
This is the way we’ve chosen to be |
This is the road that we go down |
As clear as the day but still we don’t see |
We’ll only know when it’s over |
Lost in the haze so far away how can we get back home |
Lost in the haze so far away who’s going to guide us home |
And this is how our nation died our opium has satisfied |
And finally they watch us fade away |
Our lifeless generation is going to the wall |
A languid demonstration of daze before a fall |
A preconceived condition imagined long ago |
But will we ever know all that lies below |
