Silence is bliss

(White/Armstrong)
I don't understand why anyone would do this. Not only
kill another, but help them build excuses. More
police control, more oppression of our rights. A call
to arms, reason to fight! Power to repress, to kill
without evidence and supported by the public via mind
control in the press. Keep your eyes open wide. When
truth speaks, there's nothing to hide. But inside, we
believe what papers say. Go on about your day, right
before our eyes. No matter what they say to us. It's
going on. World War Three, mass destruction. Take
care where you stand, take care who you kill. It's
you who is inciting fear. Just abide. If we keep
this locked inside, in my country I confide, no way
that he can hide from us on this crusade. It's been
played and I don't want to fight. Retract your rage.
Act your age. No war we wage is worth it. Television
station reaches more than we can teach. Domestic
deception. In this 'operation' try to practice what
you preach. We say this, but we sit still and watch
it burn right before our eyes. Silence is bliss.
