Mind For Treason


Five Iron Frenzy Lyrics

 

Mind For Treason by Five Iron Frenzy


I want to see
all minds set free.
Like slaves to their deaths,
they pledge their liberty.
Like awls through their ears
nailed to a post,
they sold their souls to the things they loved most.
Now they accuse,
my mind is closed,
I've stood in their shoes,
that's why I chose... Freedom
You've got words, clever jargon,
self-support, what a bargain.
You tell me my God is dead,
you hate a book you've never read.
Telling me that I'm pushing you
Who's world is this, who pushes who?
We've had to watch your television,
subject to your decisions
We've read your books,
and filled your schools,
You burned the truth
with hate for fuel.
You calculate your lack of reason.
I hate this place, call it treason.
Mind for Treason,
force-feeding lies,
but calling it freedom.
Masking the truth, to hide your dismay
turn a blind eye to the death and decay.
But I will rebel
it's treason I choose
you can die by yourself,
but I will refuse.
A word of truth to worlds of fiction
I'd like to challenge your depiction,
of your soul and your salvation
I'd like to shake you from stagnation.
You take the nail and drive it through
your ear to show allegiance to
your god the thing that you love most
yourself.
Am I coming close?
Blind to see your own extinction,
truth and lies have no distinction.
Shackled slaves must drop their chains
or slaves will serve themselves in vain.
