1984 (Infinite Jest) Lyrics by The Used

Heartwork

2020

[Verse 1]
No one is safe
Closer than I wanna be, imaginary enemy
Screen in my face
Never was a part of me, this part of my lobotomy
[Pre-Chorus]
But wait, while everyone's wasted the jaded today
The prettiest corpses, the real black parade
Is waiting, decay is chasing
My face compared to your face
[Chorus]
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this (Woo)
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
[Verse 2]
You keep me safe
Only way to set us free, severing the artery
Mountains of waste
Celebrated fantasy, televise the tragedy
[Pre-Chorus]
But wait, while everyone's wasted the jaded today
The prettiest corpses, the real black parade
Is waiting, decay is chasing
My face compared to your face
[Chorus]
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this (Woo)
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
[Outro]
If I open my eyes
Would I see what they planned for me?
Would I rather stay asleep and dreaming?
If I lay down and die
Have we lost the revolution? (Lost the revolution?)
Ignorance is this
