Alias Anyone

So I stand by myself
Nameless as you know me to be
That was the first thing you stole
Each and every identity

Temptations we wouldn't notice
TV shows and magazines
Bringing us all into line with
Whatever it was that you need us to be

Now you can never be too careful
You don't know quite what to do
Those who drive on through amber
Are the ones with the least to lose

We are not the guilty
We're just trying to keep our cool
And in this situation
There's little else for us to do
We are not the guilty
But you insist on making us so
And this situation
Is spiralling out of control

Naive; silenced quiet
Raves on madness in your head
I'm only waiting for the signal
To break out into something else instead

But you can never be too careful
You don't know who's watching you
Those who colour outside the lines
Are the ones with the least to lose

We are not the guilty
We're just trying to keep our cool
And in this situation
There's little else for us to do
We are not the guilty
But you insist on making us so
And this situation
Is spiralling out of control

And louder and louder and louder we scream

Prepare for the feet of giants
Those who dare to form the line
Someone has to be the first yeah
Someone has to start the fight

And you will pull your mask right down
Nameless as we know you to be
You brace yourself; we brace ourselves
For anything, anything must be better than this

I will not accept this fate.
