“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
Blooded 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 deceptible 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 nascent 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
