The Unblinking Eye

verse 1 God would weep if he existed And he saw what man can do to man, he'd think that we were twisted His unblinking eye would blink and then He'd say not in my name you don't, you stupid little men With your arrogance and ignorance, you do it time and time again I, must be getting old, there's a fire and a fury, driven deep into my soul It's the helplessness that comes from being under your control, and everything is broken verse 2 Five million cameras stare at us, you treat us like we're fools Our privacy is meaningless, we're suffocating by ten thousand rules This Kingdom's not united, just a complicated mess Are we in Europe, half in Europe, not in Europe, we're soulless, spineless, directionless I, must be getting old, there's a fire and a fury, driven deep into my soul It's the helplessness that comes from being under your control, and everything is broken Bridge Stylophone! And everything is broken Instrumental verse 3 Why send our young men out to die, in wars that we don't understand Why on earth should we be meddling, in places like Afghanistan The price is much too high, in terms of money or our precious men Your reasons are mysterious, and quite beyond Ken I, must be getting old, there's a fire and a fury, driven deep into my soul It's the helplessness that comes, you even sold our gold, and everything is broken Outro
