Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Our resolve is close to breaking
Under your watchful eye
All that's left is a prevailing
Sense of social apathy
It wasn't like you said
We're powerless
And unable to alter our direction
Slipping down
Directly in to the bottom of a hole
ย
Is it any surprise we're losing patience
While you chase another elusive enemy?
While our fear is amplified
Another culture demonised
It only serves to catalyse
This burning desire for isolation
Or is that what you wanted from the start?
Shut up and give me the medicine
Blind my eyes to the sight of it
I just want to feel numb again
And wait for this to pass
Why don't you shut up and give me the medicine?
Suck it up and give us a reason
Why this failed initiative
Gives you the right to listen in
I feel empty
There's nowhere left to hide
ย
I need someone to appease my conscience
Will the end justify the means?
Where there was dissent, there is only silence
We're all just cogs in a grand machine
Just like back in '84
There are eyes on every wall
It might be time to learn to crawl
When privacy becomes a product to be traded for another
Product to be traded for another
Product to be traded for another
Product to be traded for another
ย
They know everything about you
Shut up and give me the medicine
Blind my eyes to the sight of it
I just want to feel numb again
And wait for this to pass
Why don't you shut up and give me the medicine?
Suck it up and give us a reason
Let's burn down the figure head
I'm losing my mind, it never seems to end
ย
On the periphery
The shadows start to fall
They're moving surreptitiously
Or am I getting paranoid
When did we lose our way?
There's nothing left to say
I'm ready for a change
ย
Shut up and give me the medicine
Blind my eyes to the sight of it
I just want to feel numb again
And wait for this to pass
Shut up and give me the medicine
Suck it up and give us a reason
Nobody mourned our innocence
And none of us buy that we are any safer
