The Herd pt. 1
 
Inside the computer
a little man screams
then you scream too
that’s how it seems
 
«This is the truth»
you nod and agree
rattling your chains
knowing you’re free
 
Dressed like a rebel
you act like a slave
without any insight
on how you behave
 
You look like a sheep
in a herd on your way
to follow your sheperd
when he says «obey»
 
«This is the way»
your smile is naive
as I answer «that’s not
what I believe»
 
I stand my ground
and you wish me luck 
then you walk into
the slaughters truck
