Lyrics

Compliant

Because you have to live in silence

And don't even say you want this

And words are only violence

And you're forced to be compliant

Because you have to live in silence

And don't even say you want this

And words are only violence

And you're forced to be compliant

Enemies of the regime

In their war on reality

The ones that disagree

Destroy them entirely

Enemies of the regime

Now what's to even hope for?

When you have to learn to ignore

There's nothing left to answer for

You cannot speak anymore

You're left in such amazement

Of the ridiculous statements

You must simply pay attention

To authoritarian infiltration

Enemies of the regime

In their war on reality

The ones that disagree

Destroy them entirely

Enemies of the regime

Compliant

Infiltration

Indoctrination

Enemies of the regime

In their war on reality

The ones that disagree

Destroy them entirely
