Surveillance - Panic lyrics

A daily inundation of anger and of hate Rampant disconnection birthed from bloody soil A language of division permeates the air Outrage manufactured, tearing at the seams Panic in the empire Panic in the streets Panic where the fear and oblivion meets Violence of suspicion Violence of the mind Violence of advantage guided by the blind Sounding the alarm, fanning all the flames A creed of paranoia, philosophy of spite Ratchet up the tension, tighten all the screws Let them hang themselves from gallows of their own Panic in the empire Panic in the streets Panic where the fear and oblivion meets Violence of suspicion Violence of the mind Violence of advantage guided by the blind Hysteria prevails where reason dare not tread Crushed beneath the pressure, shattered into sand Among the smoking wreckage, the ruins of an age Remnants of a riot no one can recall Panic in the empire Panic in the streets Panic where the fear and oblivion meets Violence of suspicion Violence of the mind Violence of advantage guided by the blind
