Mechanisms of Standstill Lyrics

A Nation Chose It's Side
A Vote that Justifies
Corruption, Deceit, Torture
Blind Faith in Selfish Leaders
Whose Only Religion is Greed
Imposing (their) Beliefs on the World
Perverted Picture of Democracy

Trade Your Freedom
For the Illusion of Safety
Is it so Much Easier to Bow?
In a State of Control
This Tendency to Trust in
What Controls You
Has Left Your Nation Paralyzed

Trade Your Freedom
A Constant Climate of Fear
Maintained by the Power Hungry
The Abolition of Free Will
A Divided People's Truth
Isolated from the Eyes of the World

The Ministry of Thought
Blessing or Curse?

What a Choice to Make
What a Signal to Send to the World
