I Know How to Run

The loudest in the room are now rewarded

 The academics gone into hiding

 They can't control their students or the thought police

 The new newspeak Orwellian dream

 The debate is now controlled show trials and shaming

 Immediate feelings over future

 The solitary fight of simply being right

 Pick a tribe boy, a scripted side

 Peace of mind in a picture from a far

 Like a satellite, Like a satellite

 Worlds apart from the natural bizarre

 Like a satellite, like a satellite

 And I say run, division has won

 I say hate, the death of debate

 I say love, a center to none

 I've heard enough

 I know how to run

 The loudest in the theater are noted

 Rewarded for their insincerity

 Subconscious expressions of futility

 Nearly satire, a parody

 And I say run, division has won

 I say hate, the death of debate

 I say love, a center to none

 I've seen enough

 I know how to run

 Peace of mind in a picture from a far

 Like a satellite lit by candlelight

 Worlds apart from the natural bizarre

 Like a satellite, like a satellite

 Expertise derived from a single read

 Feelings spewed as facts, every word believed

 Legislating language and identity

 Confining freedom of thought, freedom to be

 I say run

 I hear hate

 I miss love

 I've had enough

 I know how to run
