lyrics

Inside your walls, the world is turning without you
what happens here, happened quietly
but still we gave our consent to
Swan song of intelligence,
deceptive future is here about to stay

Sudden out of nothing we are lost
Intelligence not longer used,
let us see today‘s abused
common sense out of control
fall into a hole

We welcomed it, resistance small,
the assent was the wrong side call
We welcomed it, we invited it all,
you assent your own identity to fall

Education is on the loose, dictatorship is about to rise
tell the stupid they are cool
and they will start leading fool‘s
influence and steady feed,
with things nobody needs

One world — and another for the rich
One love — and a lobby for the supreme

How can we involve,
when commercial puppets are in charge
How can busybodies educate discrimination,
armagendon in a hipster world

We welcomed it, resistance small,
the assent was the wrong side call
We welcomed it, we invited it all,
you assent your own identity to fall

Pick up the right shards and put them together
Into a thinking world, that learns from all of those pieces

And withstand, the promised salvation, desire for the lost
Disgusting liars, for own reputation,
so don‘t give up and fight

We welcomed it, resistance small,
the assent was the wrong side call
We welcomed it, we invited it all,
you assent your own identity to fall

Sometimes the few have the righteous view

Oh dear, when did it all start
We were so careless,
we have to take it back,
The Assent
