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
A Vote that Justifies
Corruption, Deceit, Torture
Whose Only Religion is Greed
Imposing (their) Beliefs on the World
Perverted Picture of Democracy
For the Illusion of Safety
Is it so Much Easier to Bow?
In a State of Control
What Controls You
Has Left Your Nation Paralyzed
A Constant Climate of Fear
Maintained by the Power Hungry
A Divided People's Truth
Isolated from the Eyes of the World
Blessing or Curse?
What a Signal to Send to the World
The dark side of the democracy and the culture of the fear.
The reference to George Orwell's novel "1984" ("Ministry of Thought") makes it quite obvious. Like yippekay implied, this is about the misuse of the idea of "democracy" in order to achieve dictatorship akin to fascism.
