lyrics

It was never taught to me
I learned it on TV
And when they slurred the doublethink
Si plumeux je suis
It seemed the bigger the screen
The brighter the blood would be
It’s cherry red, dead
Cue the scene

You say I
I don’t believe in it
Let it burn
Let it burn
And walk away
(S'éloigner, s'éloigner, s'éloigner)
It’s just a lie
And I
I see through it
Let it burn
Let it burn
And you get paid
(Compensé, compensé, compensé)

Le tireur est assis seul
Son cerveau est frit
La télévision soupire
Et cede avec un cri
Tu lás appris á la télé, télé, télé
Qu as tu appris, dis moi, dis moi, dis moi
Tu lás appris á la télé, télé, télé
Qu as tu appris, dis moi, dis moi, dis moi

The ticket’s in your hands
There’s blood on your hands
The script is in your hands
There’s blood on your hands
The image in their head
So what’s in, so what’s in
Their heads

You say I
I don’t believe in it
Let it burn
Let it burn
And walk away
(S'éloigner, s'éloigner, s'éloigner)
It’s just a lie
And I
I see through it
Let it burn
Let it burn
And you get paid
(Compensé, compensé, compensé)

The ticket’s in your hands
There’s blood on your hands
The script is in your hands
There’s blood on your hands
The image in their head
So what’s in their heads
Desensitization in our heads
So what’s in our heads
The ticket’s in your hands
The ticket’s in your name
The ticket’s in your hands
The ticket’s in your name
Desensitization in our heads
So what’s in our, what’s in our
What’s in our, what’s in our
What’s in our heads
There’s blood on your hands
There’s blood on your hands
There’s blood on your hands
There’s blood on your hands
There’s blood on your hands
There’s blood on your hands
There’s blood on your hands
