Lyrics
Modern Slavery
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look around
It’s orchestrated to keep us deep underground
Comfortable and empty as we justify
The sweet desires forged to make us toe the line
We just want to play the game now
Hold your breath and say no more
Make your way back out the door
How could you ever try to set us free
From what you see as misery
We’re happy to be in chains
Don’t think twice
This is forever we’re ready to sacrifice
Our illusions parallel a state of mind
We don’t care to think it through a different light
Someone else can take the wheel now
Hold your breath and say no more
Make your way back out the door
How could you ever try to set us free
From what you see as misery
Take it back your cause is lost
No regrets we’ll pay the cost
You know we share a common destiny
To live in modern slavery
We’re happy to be in chains
