Dead Letter Circus – This Is The Warning

• 0
  General Comment:This is the spoken word section from the start of the song:
  
  Now what we have to understand is that this comes from an extremely clever and skillful program, that has manipulated us into ways of thinking that may be contrary to our own interests, but beneficial to the interests of the powers that be... beneficial to the interests of those who control our lives, and tax us until we have hardly a penny left to spend, take our money, and plough it into the creation of huge, armed bureaucracies, which exist to oppress us. We live in a society today where we may not make decisions, to explore our own consciousness. If I am not sovereign over my own consciousness, then I am sovereign over nothing.
  
  Couldn't track down who originally said all that, but to me it seems a pretty clear attack on the rampant leftism that is threatening to take over our society and hinder our progress as a race into the future.
  
  The song sends a message to stand up for what you believe in as an individual and do what is right for you, not what is right for society as a whole, or more to the point, what is deemed to be "right" for society as a whole, by "society as a whole", which in essence means the "powers that be".

    On rampant 'leftism'?? Seems like you've been manipulated by the program, my friend: the old 'left vs right' pseudo-battle which is constructed to keep people busy whilst the powers at be fuck us over. It's an attack on power and elites in general.

  Lyric Correction:It's fallin to pieces
  I stand and wait
  There's no one to blame this time
  Stand and brace
  You sure I can't change your mind
  Heal
  Break
  There's no one to claim the lie
  Stand and face
  This is the warning
  
  As the world sleeps
  Without knowing
  Choose your ground
  Bleed
  Or start running
  Take your time
  Breathe
  Truth is coming
  Take control
  Believe
  Change
  This is the warning
  
  As the world sleeps without knowing
  Choose your ground, lead or start running
  Take your time, breathe, truth is coming
  Take control, real change
  
  They've got it all worked out
  Wish I could leave here now
  Is there another way
  Some other path to take
  We've all figured out
  Same people brought them down
  They are controlling you
  These people lead us
  
  I saw 'em change the truth
  They didn't want us to
  There right before our eyes
  Broke and remade it
  Don't take the easy line
  We're running out of time
  This is the warning
  
  just a little correction mate.. -lyrics as shown in original album case- :P
