The Inevitable

A lonely man he was
With no passion for this life
He'd read endlessly for a cause
But he failed to see the light

With countless stories on his television
He couldn't tell the truth from tales
While reading paragraphs of bloodied terror
Anxiety inside would swell

The inevitable, is it real?
The inevitable, is it real?

Incarcerated to
His little book of lies
With what else is there to have faith in
When all the faith in this world dies

With all the chaos on the television
He didn't want his life to fail
Anxiety is all you're selling us
While damning this whole world to hell

The inevitable, is it real?
The inevitable, is it real?

Co-operate with those in power or receive a bomb
They'll follow through with their solution for the weak
Fear creates the problems that the helpless have to fight
You take away our rights
Your fear is our god

The torture, the inhumanity and murder. It's desensitizing the way we see
The chaos, the silence and sickening violence
We've seen it all before, will our leaders understand?

Your words are transparent
Don't feed us lies
The inevitable, is it real?
Don't feed us lies
The inevitable, is it real?
Don't feed us lies
