Mentally Murdered Lyrics

    Lyrics : lee dorrian / music : mick harris

    Your aspirations, unable to stretch,
    Beyond the barriers of what's expected,
    As the free thought you were born with
    Becomes externally polluted.

    Lose sight of your ideals
    In their brainwashing institutions,
    Predetermine your values
    To befit your substandard existence...
    Discouraging creativity,
    To aim for empty ambitions.

    Living up to others'expectations.
    Takes hold of your assiduity.

    Mentally murdered !

    The will to succeed
    Overpowers the will to resist.

    Mentally murdered !

    Always up to the mark,
    Set the wheels in motion,
    A fake sense of security
    From your invariable position.

    Sinking in the crowd,
    A face minus expression.
    A mouth that echoes words,
    Recycled from tradition.

    Your only contentness
    Is in living a lie.

    Mentally murdered !

    Do you possess the strength
    To re-create your own life ?

    Mentally murdered ! ? ! ?
