lyrics

They put the world in a Box
The brightest minds doin' nothing at all
Well, no one cares anymore
Gave up control to an algorithm

I'm standing almost alone
Against a foe that I don't even know
They bought and sold everything
They took my friends
Now they're coming for me

You've seen enough of reality
to wander in the halls of a digital dream
Safety is a key and we're holding the locks

New world order
Hide under the cover
From the brand new normal out there
Ease your sorrow
Beg until you borrow
What you casually chose to let go

So, do you read me, hello?
You're locked inside for your own good, I know
Don't trust my mind, I'm crazy blind
A mouth is gagged so it won't die
I lost my grip on anything that was once mine

You've seen enough of reality
to wander in the halls of a digital dream

New world order
Hide under the cover
That's your brand new normal right now
Eat your sorrow
You ain't gotta borrow anything anymore
You're saved now

Change your settings
Hold on to your Netflix
You may look but don't touch, it's dangerous

Stay connected
Only through the network
You don't need to learn a lot

Unless it helps you to comply
with the guidelines set
End of it all, just a test

All the streets are dead
And the crowds asleep
Faking all harmony

Crawled out of the Box
Like a worn-out slave
Washed my face, combed my hair

Dust these songs of truth off
And meet you there
On a stage, I don't care

Sing them fast
Sing them well
Sing them any way you can
'Cause you may still burn
by the fire that set you free

Just shine a light on reality
to witness what you missed
when you traded it for safety

Safety is the key and we're holding the locks

Safety's just some shit
And I've had it with this crap

(New world order)
(Brand new normal)
New world order
(New world order)
(Brand new normal)

New world order
Hide under the cover
Fuck your brand new normal right now

New world order
Fight until it's over
See my scared old world collapse now
See my scared old world collapse now
See my scared old world collapse
