lyrics

This is what you call an education,
This is the call from the government,
Try and decipher it,
Can you tell precisely what they meant?
Control is not for the free world,
Well tell me just what this is,
I can't leave my own house now,
I can't walk down the street.

It's the fear, it's the fear, it's coming,
It's the fear, it's the fear, it's coming,
It's the fear, it's the fear, it's coming!

What do you call this, if it ain't bullshit?
What do you call this if it ain't control?
What do I say now?
There's no future left,
It's just a number, and that's that.
Don't leave me behind,
Don't leave me behind,
Don't leave me behind,
Don't leave me behind.

Holes in the screen,
Tell me where to scream,
Nothing left to be,
No-one left to be,
Did you see the second arms?
Did you see the second line?
It's the same all of the time,
It's the same all of the time,
It's the same all of the time.

Where's the council, where's the club, where's the union?
Where's control, where's the patron?
Where's control, where is government, where's solution?
Where's this hell, where's this hell taking?

Not a shared problem,
The same shared problem,
You are on your own here,
Yeah, it ain't a shared problem.

It ain't a shared problem,
It ain't a shared problem,
It ain't a shared problem,
It ain't a shared problem,
It isn't your problem,
It isn't your problem,
It isn't your problem,
It isn't your problem,
It isn't your problem,
Walk out of your problems,
Walk out of your problems,
Walk out of your problems,
Walk out on your problem,
Walk out on your problem.
