1984 Lyrics
From over the air comes a voice without careSays we're doin' all rightBut day out and day in from what he's been sayin'We're in for a fightI glance at myself and the world rushin' byI can see for myself and the fear comes aliveShades of termination--we're dyin' to survive1984 Machine is the mind--it will rule by designSo you're never aloneWe store information without confirmationAccept the unknownI think to myself of the times we have triedTo be true to ourselves and to live with the lieAvoid the contradictions--just keep yourself alive1984 I can't help it...I can't help it...I can't help it...Life is your decision--we choose to do or dieCan you live with the reality of 1985Polite conversation ain't no consolationFor blanks in your eyesAmidst the confusion there lives the illusionThat love will surviveBut I got a chance with myself if I tryTo be sure of myself and myself choose to tryFight for stimulation and love to stay alive1984
