the defense

Lyrics

nothing comes easier than madness in the world today, mass paranoia is a mode not a melody, yeah i'd like to watch all thousand cable channels but there's nothing on, and my high speed connection's monitored daily by the pentagon, these things are seldom what they seem, i'm not inclined to enjoy my dreams, won't go away, no peace and no friends, we trace the mortal edge with no defense, to state the obvious, this world is perilous for us, no sense and no guide, ain't it beautiful to be alive yeah right, i won't resign before the struggle ends, so i'll construct this sound defense, we are the prey and culture is the predator, i'm running out of time where conditions are positionnal, shadows of a doubt cast reluctance and depravity, there's got to be a way to overcome this grim reality, is there an option left for me, i'm not immune to despondency, there's no way, no peace and no friends, we trace the mortal edge with no defense, to state the obvious, this world is perilous for us, no sense and no guide, ain't it beautiful to be alive yeah right, i won't resign before the struggle ends, so i'll construct this sound defense, there's a signpost on the corner, and it keeps everybody safe, we were all made in the shade, and your mother's in the kitchen, where she's patching all the cracks in the wall, we never had to care in the world, too much to sacrifice, it's hard to recognize, just a compromise of purely deadly alibies, it's combinational, the pressure so intense, so i'll construct this sound defense, nothing's plainer than the madness in the world today, i must conceal myself and steal myself and break away, i seek initiatives in matters that are black and white, so i'll construct this sound defense
