Assimilate

And I won't assimilate
No, I won't assimilate

The future state
A downward slide
Bereft of our humanity
Compassion left behind
The left or right
Free to decide
The illusion of choice
Between this meaningless divide

And so we hate
And so we fight
And all around us, walls are growing
Higher out of sight
Resigned to fate
Plunged into night

So we can never build a bridge
Across this meaningless divide

Faceless in the mirror
Forgotten where we're from
The only right we have
Is what we spend our money on
Faceless in the mirror
Nameless and alone (and alone and alone)

And so we brawl
And so we fight
And all the while, these walls are growing
Higher out of sight
Blinded we fall
We destroyed the light

So we can never build a bridge
Across this meaningless divide

Faceless in the mirror
Forgotten where we're from
The only right we have
Is what we spend our money on
Thrust into an army
Seven billion strong
But I will not be numbered
And I won't play along

And I won't assimilate
No, I won't assimilate

And I won't assimilate
No, I won't assimilate
And I won't assimilate
No, I won't assimilate
And I won't assimilate
No, I won't assimilate

Faceless in the mirror
Forgotten where we're from
The only right we have
Is what we spend our money on
Thrust into an army
Seven billion strong
But I will not be numbered
And I won't play along

And I won't assimilate
No, I won't assimilate
And I won't assimilate
No, I won't assimilate
