Project Fear
Breaking Walls: Unveiling the Deception in 'Project Fear'
Lyrics
You wanted freedom
Expressing the desire for freedom
So you put up a wall
Building barriers (literal or metaphorical) to achieve that freedom
Just block out the light
Intentionally blocking out enlightenment or awareness
To criticise
Creating barriers to avoid criticism
The ones next door
Being critical of neighbors or others close by
You wanted order
Desiring order and structure
To assign to shapes
Assigning predefined forms or rules to life
To live our live lifes
Living lives in a routine manner
Hand to mouth
Surviving day-to-day on basic necessities
On a welfare state
Dependence on a welfare state for sustenance
You liar
Repetition emphasizes the accusation of dishonesty
You liar
-You liar
-You liar
-We can't afford to be you
Rejecting the idea of being like the accused
You fix it
Call to the accused to fix the situation
You fix it
-You fix it
-You wanted fear
Expressing a desire for fear
Just to keep us indoors
Using fear as a tool to confine people indoors
Drugged to our eyes
Alluding to the numbing effects of distraction or misinformation
Never criticise
Discouraging criticism through manipulation
What we're taking it for
Questioning the purpose or understanding of what is accepted
You wanted terror
Expressing a desire for terror
Just to keep us in place
Using terror to control and restrict movement
Too scared to travel
Instilling fear to prevent exploration or questioning
Too scared to talk
Creating an environment where communication is stifled
Too scared to hate
Promoting a culture of fear to deter expressions of hatred
You liar
Repetition emphasizes the accusation of dishonesty
You liar
-You liar
-You liar
-You fix it
Reiterating the call to the accused to rectify the situation
You fix it
-You fix it
