lyrics

These are perilous times,
The experts agree.
It's not safe for our children to travel the streets.
The dangers surround us,
and grow worse every day,
The news is a marathon of violence,
Eight more blown away.

Fear is all we see,
Fear is all we know.
Fear is what we teach,
And fear is what we sow.

Welcome to school son, put your keys in this tray,
Just empty your bag and your pockets, and you’ll be on your way.
It's not about freedom, it's about keeping you safe,
Just try to forget what you gave up and have a nice day!

Fear is all you see,
Fear is all you know.
Fear is all you need,
Fear of the unknown.
There is no reprieve,
There is no respite.
The day is coming, it'll happen to you,
It's just a matter of time.

We live our lives afraid, on guard and filled with dread we cannot escape.
Though we try to understand why all we can do is shelter in place.

Our children can't cope with all that they feel,
Once peaceful surroundings are now battlefields.
There must be an answer,
Some evil or cause,
Something or someone to blame for our loss.
It's those films or their music or those fucking games,
That make them this violent and fuck with their brains.
It couldn't be us, no, we've done all we can,
And it's not good enough to erase the....

Fear.

We can't escape fear..

We have to do more than shelter in place.

Control your...
Resist your...
Master your...
Conquer your..
Fear.
Or you'll never escape

Free yourself from the prison cell,
Stem the tide and take back your life,
Once you realize you'll never be.......safe.

Fear cannot control our lives.
Fear cannot control our lives.
Fear will not control our lives.
Fear will not control our lives.
