Lyrics

[Verse 1]
For the common good, that
That glare so piercing it will burn through your back
Reach, re-educate the soul (Even though this is feigned)
Because you need to be taken to task
You need to be taken to task
[Verse 2]
Obscure my face
In shadows I'll consolidate
Unmasked, I'd be whipped into shape
In shadows I'll consolidate
[Verse 3]
False alarmist - they will brand it on your back
Or maniacal sadist, when you are barely defence-minded
Because you walk right out of step
You walk right out of step
[Verse 4]
Obscure my face
Effectively decapitate
Unbowed through the smear campaign
Effectively decapitate
[Verse 5]
Effectively, socially, protectively decapitated
[Verse 6]
Whiteout in the blackout
So everybody's running scared
Whiteout in the blackout
Rank and file and all upstanding with selective downplaying
Whiteout in the blackout
[Verse 7]
Whiteout in the blackout
So the oft-duped are grossly impaired
Whiteout in the blackout
Startled, unsettled thus curiosity expelled
Whiteout in the blackout
[Verse 8]
Homogenous - I'm surplus to this time that's well contained
Sullied rat in basement trap with vital exposé
[Verse 9]
Whiteout in the blackout
Startled, unsettled thus curiosity expelled
Whiteout in the blackout
[Verse 10]
Obscure my face
Effectively decapitate
Obscure my face
In shadows I'll consolidate
[Verse 11]
For your own protection for the retardation...
