misery index - new salem lyrics
[verse 1]
sharpen up the guillotine as fashionistas clean the scene
you’re socially bewitched with narrative affixed
tried and executed with no due process
[chorus]
do you fight the good fight? or instigate the fighting?
it’s a f-cking witch hunt
somebody’s head’s gotta roll
in new salem
[verse 2]
burn the books, rename the streets
nothing is safe, suppress the speech
a virtual conflict, binary logic
who the f-ck is the straw man now?
[chorus]
do you fight the good fight? or instigate the fighting?
it’s a f-cking witch hunt
co-opted activists divide and conquer us
somebody’s head’s gotta roll
[post-chorus]
new salem
new salem
new salem
co-opted activists, somebody’s head’s gotta roll
new salem
new salem
new salem
co-opted activists divide and conquer us
somebody’s head’s gotta roll
[verse 3]
in a pacified endemic state, it’s another echo-chamber slave
addicted to extremes of ideologies
where left and right amalgamate and hang us from their tallest trees
[chorus]
do you fight the good fight? or instigate the fighting?
it’s a f-cking witch hunt
somebody’s head’s gotta roll
[guitar solo]
[verse 4]
in an echo chamber no one can hear you scream
burning the straw man in this knee-jerk nightmare
roiling in all your virtue valor, awakening as a victim martyr
freedom fighter, or bald-faced instigator?
[chorus]
do you fight the good fight? or instigate the fighting?
it’s a f-cking witch hunt
somebody’s head’s gotta roll
new salem
new salem
new salem
somebody’s head’s gotta roll
new salem
new salem
new salem
co-opted activists divide and conquer us
somebody’s head’s gotta roll
