lyrics

It’ll break you, take you, shape you, mould you.
Beat you down til you got nothing to hold to.
All your choices took, first one’s free and now you’re hooked.

Stare it in the face like you see right through.
“I don’t need this and I don’t need you”
All my choices took, first one’s free and now you know I’m hooked.

Tried to stay, tried to run away. Tried everything to keep the demons at bay.
When it’s not in my way, it’s out of reach. I hear your words but you preach, not teach.
A world of possibility. Fill it with banality.
Predictable hold of the well-cut mold.
Political insanity, total inequality, it’s no surprise we do what we’re told.

I won’t break. I won’t fold.
Don’t want to control or be controlled.
Is that what you want/need anyway? They try to get at my head again.

Please forgive what they do not know, but don’t forget just what they own.
The trees, the soil, the means of production. Our consent to self-destruction.
