Mind Control
Burning the Masses Lyrics

Control lurks the sky and cheats my conception,
The idea that we are being controlled is always present and undermines our ability to comprehend things accurately.

Narco-hypnosis, unwilling, take my life!
We are being controlled through various methods such as hypnosis, and it is taking away our agency.

Keeping us in a state of fear
The people in power keep us scared and anxious so we remain under their control.

Aging with anger, civil unrest withholds my spine
As we get older, we become more frustrated with the societal issues and injustices that we are unable to control.

Intellectual dead mind!
Our capacity to think critically and creatively is being stifled by the control mechanisms in place.

Are you tuned to human standards?
Are you conforming to the expectations and demands of the ruling powers?

This Technetronic leash tugs on our self-judgment,
The technological tools and devices we rely on are controlling our thoughts and decision-making processes.

Polluting our fucking brain, with wants, neural cell manipulation!
Our desires and thoughts are being manipulated and controlled through various means such as technology, leading to a polluted and unhealthy mindset.

Machined brain, Machined brain, machined brain please change the channel!
We are succumbing to the constant barrage of information and programming, leading to a lack of individual thought and the need to change our mindset.

Dumbing down of humanity!
The techniques used to control us are leading to a less intelligent and less expressive society.

Victims of a Programmable Assassination.
We are being assassinated, or killed off, slowly and systematically through the programming and control mechanisms in place.

Using our emotions as strings to control us.
Our emotions are being manipulated and used against us in order to maintain control over our actions and decisions.

Repetition finds its nest in the mind of the weak, laying a method of citizen control,
Repeated messaging and propaganda is used to control the minds of those who are more vulnerable and susceptible to it.

distracted by flashes, an invisible power governs our path.
We are being distracted and diverted from the true issues at hand by the powers in control, who are directing us down a path that benefits them.

Your now recruited, an animal tested, this is the time and age, please make sure you wave, make sure you wave!
We are being actively recruited and experimented on, and we are being told to comply and behave in a certain way in order to remain under the control of those in power.

Mind control!!
The entire song is about the effects of mind control on an individual and society as a whole.
