'A Conformity Flame'

(hi hats only)

Running away from this place
we call home

Fed up of all it's stupid
little lies

People around me
Bitch and moan

I look at this place
I think its time to say
Goodbye

(kick in to solo)

I don't like them anymore
Lieing to the nation
Trying our patience

I don't like them anymore
Lying to us through their press
They're our little
Information whores

Well I say let's close the door
Once and for all let's close that door

(build up to)

(chorus - next 2 verses)

I fall on my feet
Hear them all laughing
At the misfortune of the man
They do not understand

I want to get out of the fire
Out of the mud and the mire
Before it's too late
But it's too late for you now...

Yeah...too late for you now...

(drum fill)

Yes, your minds have been poisoned
Ruined with fear
I know there is no point
trying to communicate with
That space between your ears...

...because I know that your useless
Dying side
That thing you used to call a conscience
Has run away to hide
In that hideaway you call a heart
I know I'm a mile apart

(drum fill/build up)

(chorus)

(quiet)

That pollution in the airwaves
Has ruined your head
I lie in my bed
Not listening any more

Yes they hav nothing good to say
I've been there before
Listening to the poor mans
Tour de force

(build up through the next verse)

And yet you take it in
Like a conveyor belt
In that crap factory
I think its time I dealt
A blow to your self esteem

Woke you up
Shook you free
From those shackles of
Conformity

(drum fill/build up)

(chorus)

I fall on my feet
Hear them all laughing
At the misfortune of the man
They do not understand

I want to get out of the fire
Out of the mud and the mire
Before it's too late
But it's too late for you now...

Yeah...too late for you now...

Unless you come with me
Fight on my side
Fight on my side...

(draw 'side' out as the song ends)
