They Live Lyrics


Out here in the veiled city streets so demure

A secret we’ve started to see

In front of our face, sharing our space

With untold technology

Oh run (you can run) but there’s no place to go

They live wielding weapons unknown

With what we are dealing, the Gods would be kneeling

And praising the power they’ve shown

We’re inside your deepest core

Infecting your minds with bile

Surrender your souls to the system,

Embracing your fate with a smile (RUN)

Explore and you’ll find

Control your mind

Ignore and you’ll find

The end of humankind

They’ve been interfering for thousands of years

Stunting the pace we advance

Enslaving ourselves unto to one another

So that we won’t stand a chance

Weaponise man with philosophy

Obey and conform, can’t you see?

While bombs and explosions are great for the moment

Bad premises hollow the trees

For millennia unspoken

We’ve been farming the seed

From each according to ability

To each according to need (RUN)

Explore and you’ll find

Control your mind

Ignore and you’ll find

The end of humankind

Out here in the veiled city streets so demure

A secret we’ve started to see

Weapons so strange, that mush in your brains

No reason to think critically

Well run (you can run) but you won’t get too far

Don’t try to stray from the herd

‘Cos you’ll fall in line, and surely in time

This evil will end our whole world

We’re inside your deepest core

Infecting your minds with bile

Surrender your souls to the system

Embracing your fate with a smile (RUN)

Explore and you’ll find

Control your mind

Ignore and you’ll find

The end of humankind
