I don't fall for theories
Designed to change your views
Created to fool you
By people that rule you
If only to hide the truth
I don't fall for speeches
Produced behind the lines
By someone who's woven
Some banners and slogans
To conquer your hearts and minds
One life one try
It's enough to keep on breathing
One fight one side
But tell me who to trust
Tell me who to trust
Lost in a world where nothing's real
Learning to trust in what I feel
Getting worn down by this war of attrition
This is my defence condition
Want to be heard but I've got no voice
Watched and observed but I've got no choice
Twenty four seven 'cos I gave my permission
This is my defence condition
I don't fall for penance
I don't think God's to blame
And if he is there then
I don't think he'd care for
Us doing it in his name
And it can't be random
It's all too neatly done
You don't make a heart grow
Until there's a blood flow
So where was it flowing from
One truth one proof
Just enough to keep believing
One voice one choice
But tell me who to trust
Tell me who to trust
Lost in a world where nothing's real
Learning to trust in what I feel
Getting worn down by this war of attrition
This is my defence condition
Want to be heard but I've got no voice
Watched and observed but I've got no choice
Twenty four seven 'cos I gave my permission
This is my defence condition
I don't fall for theories
I don't fall for theories
Power corrupts and meaning dies
Bend the truth with little white lies
No one wants to be exposed
So words are purged and cases closed
Power corrupts and lines are crossed
Wars are won but nothing is lost
Every virtue bites the dust
So how do you know who to trust
Sometimes life is a battle
There is no turning back
And justice can be slow to dispatch so
Lock all your windows
And batten your hatches
Sometimes lies are effective
No one sees them attack
But propaganda shows their offence so
Cover your eyes now
And raise your defences
DEFCON 2 and the threat is true
DEFCON 1 and the damage is done
DEFCON 2 and the threat is true
DEFCON 1 and the damage is done
These hollow days
My thoughts remain unseen
The world cannot be altered
By a billboard or a meme
No one proclaims
Their imaginary views
Unless they're all the same
As the imaginary news
Power corrupts and meaning dies
Bend the truth with little white lies
No one wants to be exposed
So words are purged and cases closed
Power corrupts and lines are crossed
Wars are won but nothing is lost
Every virtue bites the dust
So how do you know who to trust
Sometimes life is a battle
There is no turning back
And justice can be slow to dispatch so
Lock all your windows
And batten your hatches
Sometimes lies are effective
No one sees them attack
But propaganda shows their offence so
Cover your eyes now
And raise your defences
One life one try
It's enough to keep on breathing
One fight one side
But tell me who to trust
Tell me who to trust
Lost in a world where nothing's real
Learning to trust in what I feel
Getting worn down by this war of attrition
This is my defence condition
Want to be heard but I've got no voice
Watched and observed but I've got no choice
Twenty four seven 'cos I gave my permission
This is my defence condition
DEFCON 2 and the threat is true
This is my defence condition
DEFCON 1 and the damage is done
This is my defence condition
DEFCON 2 and the threat is true
This is my defence condition
DEFCON 1 and the damage is done
This is my defence condition
What you going to do when the meaning goes
You're lying like thieves
And you're not going to change me
What you going to do when the feeling grows
We're falling like leaves
But you're not going to change me
What you going to do when the demon knows
You're lying like thieves
And you're not going to change me
What you going to do when the healing flows
We're falling like leaves
But you're not going to change me
You are not God
And you're never going to save me
What you going to do when the meaning goes
You're lying like thieves
And you're not going to change me
What you going to do when the feeling grows
We're falling like leaves
But you're not going to change me
What you going to do when the demon knows
You're lying like thieves
And you're not going to change me
What you going to do when the healing flows
We're falling like leaves
But you're not going to change me
You are not God
And you're never going to save me
