Lyrics Orange Goblin – Burn The Ships

Highly medicated, society sedated
They keep you where they want you
And watch you when they need to
They sell you education

Brainwashed to believe them
When they tell you that you need them
Obsessed with biased media
That exists just to deceive us
Maniacal voices
That drip feed you your choices
Then send you to the front line
While they kick back with their fine wine

Form an orderly queue for the grave
There’s a lesson to learn here
As we’re lead to our death just like slaves
We should return here
There’s a reason to fight and survive
At the crack of the whip
Come together and reclaim your lives
And burn the ships

The man with the gun in his hand
Refused to listen, put his head in the sand
The masses woke and started to plan
To override them and take back the land
A million strong, downtrodden too long
Took up the challenge to right all the wrong
A plan was hatched and soldiers dispatched

The man with the gun in his hand
Refused to listen, put his head in the sand
The masses woke and started to plan
To override them and take back the land
A million strong, downtrodden too long
Took up the challenge to right all the wrong
A plan was hatched and soldiers dispatched
We burned the ships ‘cos we only attack

Form an orderly queue for the grave
There’s a lesson to learn here
As we’re lead to our death just like slaves
We should return here
There’s a reason to fight and survive
At the crack of the whip
Come together and reclaim your lives
And burn the ships
