Did you know that freedom costs?
You never tried to take a chance
No one wants to live in pain
But you won’t dare to break your chain
Another movement freeze
Another chasm to bridge
Another wall to smash
Another prison glass
Abomination lies
Relentless stony eyes
Reign of ignorance
An easy trap to guess
Alter the emptiness
Ain’t just a game you play
You have to learn the rules
There’s a price to pay
You know, it’s difficult to be
Ever so different from those hopeless TV junkies
The mindless joke that freezes your smile
And sells your culture to the markets
You don’t know where you come from
And you don’t know where you will go
At the end of this assembly line
Your future failures have been written
Alter the emptiness
Ain’t just a game you play
You have to learn the rules
There’s a price to pay
