I'm no longer preaching to the converted |
|
That congregation has long ago deserted |
|
All we discovered was even more despair |
|
But we learned how to cope we learned how not to care |
|
|
|
And the sun will still keep rising |
|
Always deflecting always disguising |
|
Was there ever another place |
|
Did we ever really exist |
|
|
|
All we make is entertainment |
|
A sad indictment of what we are good at |
|
We're all part of the grand delusion |
|
|
|
We made so much we let it all crumble |
|
To safeguard our rights to make us more "human" |
|
Oh this country is but an empty shell |
|
A clearing house for heaven a clearing house for hell |
|
|
|
And the sun will still keep rising |
|
Always deflecting always disguising |
|
Was there ever another place |
|
Did we ever really exist |
|
|
|
All we make is entertainment |
|
It's so damn easy and inescapable |
|
We're so post-modern and so post-everything |
|
|
|
All we make is entertainment |
|
An end to hope and civilisation |
|
A simple way to seek perfection |
|
|
|
The insides of our nation have been exposed |
|
It only confirms what we already know |
|
Pointless jobs just lead to pointless lives |
|
It's breaking up our bones it's breaking up our minds |
