GUEST VOCALS - SHELLEY SLATER
"George Orwell's 1984 showed us a vision of a dystopian society where the public are in fear of their omnipresent governments surveillance. What Orwell failed to predict was that it would be us who buy the cameras and broadcast every aspect of our lives through social media. We seek affirmation of our lives by the number of likes and retweets we receive.
Our biggest fear is not that we are being watched........our biggest fear is that no one is watching."

Slip The Leash
00:55
|

As the digital age gains its traction
We socialise more but with less interaction
Introverted addicts to the blue light glare
Populous community with nobody there
Anti-social media, controlled and contained
Strip the corporate varnish and nothing remains
Blinkered from the real world, your aspiration dies
REALISE, REAL EYES, REALISE, REAL LIES!
Turn it off (SLIP THE LEASH)
Put it down (SLIP THE LEASH)
Go outside (SLIP THE LEASH)
Meet your friends (SLIP THE LEASH)
Watch a band (SLIP THE LEASH)
Read a book (SLIP THE LEASH)
Breath the air (SLIP THE LEASH)
Feel the sun (SLIP THE LEASH)

Hysteria/Hypocrisy/Lies
02:28
|
|||
A threat to you and your security
I laughed at historical slurs
Nothing but deeply sinister
The rich get richer; the poor get poorer
Hysteria
Hypocrisy
Hope in their eyes
The media lies
Waiting for the thugs to march
The reporters are on the hunt
But who is it running right now?
As we fuck the establishment

Special guest vocals by Rebecca Trioxin
The way you flirt
Your short skirt
All your fault
This assault
A victim cries
They say it's lies
A culture bred
Inside mens heads

Self-serving
Narcissist
Bourgeois scum
Anarchist
Your best friend (it’s all in your head)
An idol among fools (it’s all in your head)
Hypocrisy? (It’s all in your head)
Crash and burn (it’s all in your head)
Dishonest
Feminist
Imposter
Moralist

Two Fingers Up
01:29
|
|||
Under thinking, under bred, an empty soul and an empty head
Moral vacuum, between the ears, a philosophy of hate and fear
Social media manipulation, diversity contamination
Squeeze the life from the master race, the blood looks good on your pure white face
I put two fingers up to your three fingers down
I put two fingers up to the right wing in your town
Exaggerate our differences, the difference is our strength
Hide behind the rhetoric, keep truth at arm’s length
Nationalism is infantile. The measles of mankind
In a modern sane society, you will be left behind

Deviants
01:28
|
|||
What are you up to?
God needs to judge you
We'll save your soul
Clean minds and living
Welcome to heaven
Sin takes its toll
Calling the deviants
Calling the perverts
God needs to know what goes on in your bed
Queer punks and lesbians
Trans vegetarians
God needs to know what is wrong with your head
Don't taste the queer fruit
Normal life will suit
Moulded to grey
Sanitised lifestyle
Cutting down the vile
Pure is the way
|

8. |

Your words come out like bile
You're totally in denial
Bigotry comes from beneath
Wrongly defended by your bared teeth
Bigotry is hatred
Free speech is a lie
Bigotry is hatred
Why don't you fuck off and die?
Don't you know it's fascist to care?
Logic lost behind your vacant stare
Homophobia will always stay
40 years of anger aimed the wrong way
