Текст песни Meshuggah - Dancers To A Discordant System [Live]

Текст:

[Lyrics: Tomas Haake, Music: Fredrik Thordendal] Listen to the hidden tune - The essence of lies in notes defined As we dance to the dissonant sway - The choreography refined Will subdued and shackled Reason washed aside Pledging our love to the chains Our ignorance ever-amplified Blooded hands lead the waltz We're trapped in the out of tune swirl Still we set the show on continue mode And dance to a discordant system We accept the nails we're fed - Lies sharpened to bleed us silent Muted from the pains Defiance employed in vain Any attempts to leave the dance, Invisibly suppressed Questions unasked, we learn learn the steps - Eyes shut like all the rest Unsuspecting, willing, blind, controllable herd Pawns in a covert game conducted by hands we trust Dominated, compliant and deceptable Confident that we matter - we don't see that we're but dust Committed to a lie we cannot see, cannot know nor comprehend We're all asinine drones kept in the dark, kept in line Confined, Bereft of reason Withering in toxicity - The deadly fumes of deceit And we all reek of complicity Humbled, brought to our knees By the weight of our own guilt Our nescient ways the catalyst To injustice and inhumanity We dance - to appease Compete in stupidity Obscured faces file our points - Numbers fed to the machine Still we stand in line for the next show The human spine liquefied What are we, but stupefied Dancers to a discordant system We believe - so we're misled We assume - so we're played We confide - so we're deceived We trust - so we're betrayed
