Necessary Illusions Lyrics by Brandish

Funfair / Warfare

2020

Married to the concepts and enchanting visuals
Protected interests, psychotic ritual
History is easy to forget when your plate is full
To ignore it is your reflex, they know what keeps you
Sleeping tight, eaten alive with messages you can't deny
And they feed it to your children, holy writ recited to galvanize
And waste young minds from the moment they open their eyes
Let's call it education because we got space to fill
Prescribe more medication, that's one less bitter pill
I'm sorry that I won't defend the fear you spread or time I've spent
Cowardly, quietly, sitting still so idly
I've slept it off but nothing's changed, we're still their pretty little slaves
Do you bite the hand that feeds when that same hand if of the thief
That keeps you holding tight for your fucking life
They'll keeping taking just to make you buy
Into this paralyzing paradise, where roles have been decided
And fossilized, another wasted mind
Until the moment when you finally meet your demise
