Written during lockdown 2021 about concerns regarding the hiding of the truth

I don't know but I've been told you're too young, you're too old. Moral of the story is written in the sand way things turn out is rarely how we planned They'll take your confession an' lead you to the dock watching every movement right around the clock They aint your friends - they got somethin' on you you can try to deny it but you know that its true They dictate your religion - sanction your belief and if you do their bidding they'll give you relief but question them on motives an they'll take you down First you'll get the run around then kicked out of town Maybe it's deep state. 1984. Look out for the thought police - they're knockin' at your door (Lead break) Maybe it's deep state. 1984. Look out for the thought police - they're knockin' at your door Can't trust the media - They lie with every breath No point in callin' out - to the truth they're deaf They'll take away your freedoms then delete the past Lost the power of free-speech - was never gonna last As for your opinions - keep 'em to yourself forget reasoned argument - dissent is on the shelf I don't know where its all gonna end no matter what is said, it will always offend Wanna keep a secret? - Hide it from your self if white is black & black is white then poverty is wealth When truth & reason disappear, lies will fill the void Maybe it's deep state. 1984. Look out for the thought police - they're knockin' at your door x
