Dystopia Lyrics by Megadeth

Warheads on Foreheads

2016

[Verse 1]
"What you don’t know," the legend goes, "can't hurt you"
If you only want to live and die in fear
They tell us to believe just half of what we see
And absolutely nothing that we hear
Resist the twisted truth no matter what the cost
Supplant the rights with wrongs inside our heads
Outlawing all the questions to the answers
That no one likes when someone ends up dead

[Chorus]
Dystopia
Dystopia
Dystopia
Dystopia

[Verse 2]
"What you don’t know," the legend goes, "can't hurt you"
If you only want to live and die in a cage
There's panic and there's chaos rampant in the streets
Where useless thoughts of peace are met with rage
Demoralized and overmastered people think
The quickest way to end a war is lose
Dictatorship ends starting with tyrannicide
You must destroy the cancer at its root

[Chorus]
Dystopia
Dystopia
Dystopia
Dystopia
(Dystopia)
