Orwellian Times

I had my back to the ground
Did you recognize my face?
The many fears from the sound
Of a world that’s slipping away
Whatever we face tonight
I know that I might end up on my own
It’s amazing what we do
It’s too late to take away from me
We take orders well
But I will not set my mind to take orders well
Alone we can’t survive
You have my will to fight
In a world that will not tell me to take
Orders well
An Orwellian time is now
It’s only in my mind
You justified the crown
And weaponised his name
Through every cheer from the crowd
Feel the world just slipping away
Whatever we face tonight
I know that I might end up on my own
It’s amazing what we do
It’s too late to take away from me
We take orders well
But I will not set my mind to take orders well
Alone we can’t survive
You have my will to fight
In a world that will not tell me to take orders well
An Orwellian time is now
It’s only in my mind
We didn’t ask for your opinion
We didn’t need to know the truth
Did you find out that your world is slipping away?
Can’t you see the weight on your own?
And did you give it all away?
The world’s mistakes will bleed us every single day
Cut my hand still bleeding
Did you see a falling angel?
Or is it the stars are falling
Did you see a falling angel?
Or is it the stars are falling?
You justified the crown
And weaponised his name
Through every cheer from the crowd
Feel the world just slipping away
(Don't try to make it on my own)
I know that I might end up on my own
It’s amazing what we do
(Don't try to make it on my own)
I know that I might end up on my own
We take orders well
But I will not set my mind to take orders well
Alone we can’t survive
You have my will to fight
In a world that will not tell me to take
Orders well
An Orwellian time is now
It’s only in my mind
