Opiate For The Masses - Illusions lyrics

I give a large piece of all I have

For someone to tell me who I am

A small price to pay

For an illusion today

But when I stand my ground

They just push me away

I keep my mouth shut

Cuz the keep me fed

I hide the thoughts inside my head

A small price to pay

For an illusion today

But when I stand my ground

They just push me away

(The successful institutions

Or the best of all illusions

They are anti-humanistic

And they have the power of atomic fusion) x2

(Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom

When the jungle shadows fall

Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock

As it stands against the wall)

I have no regrets for faith in you

Til the day you would not see me through

A small price to pay for what was yesterday

Cuz when I stood my ground

You just pushed me away

(The successful institutions

Or the best of all illusions

They are anti-humanistic

And they have the power of atomic fusion) x2

The successful institutions

Or the best of all illusions

They are anti-humanistic

And they have the power of atomic fusion

They set the tide for atomic fusion (x4)

The successful institutions

Or the best of all illusions

They are anti-humanistic

And they got the power of atomic fusion

The successful institutions

Or the best of all illusions

They are anti-humanistic

And they have the power of atomic fusion

And the set the tide for atomic fusion

(Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom

When the jungle shadows fall

Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock

As it stands against the wall)
