Silence Equals Death

Just let it be, the ones behind the rules also follow them
out of your reach, thoughts in surrender breeds the death of faith
plant their seed, and stand by their side while you watch them reap
accept your leash, without any struggle you go back to sleep

When will the reign of deceit come to an end?
our duty and our right as a people, we must defend
when injustice is law, will you silently give your consent?
or use the power of speech, make them fear our discontent

In silence cry
in silence die
pretending you are as free as you want to be
truth be told
truth's been blindfold
freedom of speech, a right that is out of reach
forced to dwell
inside our shells
our opinions bought without a single battle fought
in silence cry
in silence you will die
unless you break your chains

Patronized, sleepwalking through day after day
continue to dream, their illusions keep your believes alive
mentally numb, no time to reflect when constantly fed
no suspicion at all, as the truth once again is filled with lead

You degrade yourself, when letting them push your rights aside
to a worthless machine, who might physically live but is dead inside
so abandon your hope, if you're not prepared to stand your ground
but you better be warned, what once was lost may never again be found
