lyrics

Welcome to the new age, you don’t need to be afraid, if you’re scared you can reach us online
You see adverts in your dreams, your head’s one big movie screen, you have visions of fast food and cars

The morning breaks, two minutes hate, the screaming starts before you say, ‘well I guess Orwell was right’
Lying there in your single bed, your TV set to sleepy head, it watches you all through the night

Let it go, for once in your life

Big cities to backwards towns, pollute themselves with awful sounds, the sun’s gone but the lights still grow bright
The sut that fills the air, was there a time when it wasn’t there? We wear masks and look to the sky

The dawn is red, the King is dead, you mutter underneath your breath, ‘well I guess tonight is the night’
And lying there on your single bed, your TV brain switched on again, commercials all through the night

Let it go, for once in your life

There was a time when, I felt alright.

You’re an addict to feeling pain, I’m addicted to feeling shame
You’re ill, I’m sick and we know it
I love the bones of you, does that ever depress you too?
One day we’ll pay for our crimes

Let it go, for once in your life
You see it out, you see this out now, for once in your life
