Plodding on a broken wheel
Afraid of learning what is real
Pained with thought they'll not reveal
Ashamed of how they really feel
It makes them blind
It makes them Dumb
Ignorance the only symptom
Hide your children
Here they come
Close your mind
Become a victim
(Chorus)
Devastating mental war
Twisted misconceptions of virtue
Cloaks of clever words assure
plague be placed on all of you
A plague on you
Politics and arrogance
none of which is making sense
Robbing meek under duress
Wealth their only happiness
It makes them mad
It makes them hate
There's no cure beyond this state
Far too bad
and much too late
Close your eyes
Accept your fate
(Chorus Repeated)
A plague on you
