System Fear Lyrics


In this world there are so many systems

Designed to restrict and confine actions

Life following a preset pattern

Constricting free will, ability to choose

Unable to break free and go against the grain

Of widely recognised social patterns

Trapped in our condemned system

Parameters not open to re-definition

What good is freedom

When exercising it brings only oppression?

Born into this world, brought to accept

Our pre-destined relationships

With our environment, other humans, other species

A vicious circle of hate and mistrust

Customs carried down from the dawn of time

Have led us to be at loggerheads

With our responsibilities as custodians

Victims of our own carniverous aggression

Standing outside our fear system

Looking in on a misleading cycle of existence

(Solo: Rich)

Our ecosystem twisted, mutated

Raped beyond recognition

Human life a distortion of nature

(Un) necessary rat race of fearful competition

To further ourselves we must reject

Common notions of life and world view

Petty stigma attached to certain characteristics

Disassemble distopia, built on a fear system

(Solo: Rich)

(Solo: Darren)

Mankind look at yourself from the outside

With maturity, why don't you act with fucking humanity
