We Are The Dead Lyrics by Eternal Dirge
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
As you gain for power
Pain has been hurled
Opression every hour
It´s a dog-eat-dog world

Now as you can see
Dream turns into insanity
Only the Thought-police mattered
Your dreams of a free life are shattered

Total reconstruction of the past
Two-minute-hate-programmes
That won´t last

No truth - but propaganda
In your head
Slowly dicovering that
WE ARE THE DEAD

Total control
By permanent supervision
Absolute power
By manipulation
No correspondence
Between facts and their representation

WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGHT
As you gain for power   Pain has been hurled  Opression every hour  It´s a dog-eat-dog world    Now as you can see  Dream turns into insanity  Only the Thought-police mattered  Your dreams of a free life are shattered    Total reconstruction of the past  Two-minute-hate-programmes   That won´t last    No truth - but propaganda  In your head  Slowly dicovering that  WE ARE THE DEAD    Total control  By permanent supervision  Absolute power  By manipulation  No correspondence  Between facts and their representation    WAR IS PEACE  FREEDOM IS SLAVERY  IGNORANCE IS STRENGHT
