no more fucking poetry that world is done we've sold off all the metaphors we've pawned the moon, the sun and laid them in the ground beside our old imagination beside the corpse of history just stories that they tell to us not written by the victors because no one is victorious
the ghost of 1984 nothing means much anymore the future is so bright that we've all been blinded by it the old world is gone it's a new world, but there's no bravery we've gotta find a new life we must be free
oh you're bored of politics? well so the fuck am i but just because you close your eyes won't make it go away oh the party's over? well what a tragedy but did you really that kindness could be replaced by greed? if you hide your head beneath the sand the rest of you is going to end up underneath the ground if you're only watching your own back you won't even notice when the television screens go black we've gotta find a new life..
