6PEK - POST-TRUTH lyrics

Then You Win

My, my, everyone dies, for some of us its more a battle and for others a ride,
I've felt like it was the apocalypse for my whole life,
Of course, Babylon is falling its a tower of lies,

I'm like...
Power to the planet, hear this before they ban it,
We're quickly running out of time to reverse the damage,
No, no doubt about it, stand up and be counted,
Heroes are needed we either volunteer or vanish,
Means of production, production of means,
The game is lost the day you think there's more than one team,
So just, keep your eye on the ball,
We've never been so damn big or made to feel so small.

First they ignore you,
Then they laugh at you,
And then they fight you,
Then you win..

Why?, why? humanity why?, if you expect the worst you're hardly ever surprised,
We've got nowhere to run, and nowhere really to hide,
because our biggest enemy is just ourselves in disguise,

Let's try...
Calm and collective, what's really effective?,
how do we dissect this block?,you know what,
it goes deeper than the finance,
Toppling the tyrants, we need to thing outside of the box,
i'm in a strop, but its no longer an option any more to opt out,
We're dealing with too large a scale,
if we could see how late it is right now we'd stop the clocks,
before this train goes off the rails.

First they ignore you,
Then they laugh at you,
And then they fight you,
Then you win..


Real Life

Once upon time is a wheel, falling and finding the feel, not, clear,
whether or not its a crime, there in the back of my mind i hear,

it saying hold, on, to your real life, to your real life,
because were not, just here for the ride ,but trust in love and you'll be fine

freedom is priceless of course, zebra said til he was horse, my bad
though it has now been some years, i know that if he was here, grandad would be like ,

hold, on, to your real life, to your real life,
because were not, just here for the ride ,but trust in love and you'll be fine



To Those

(And so..)

To those who wanna hold me back,
i'm sorry i can't help with that,
i'm sorry i wont be involved at all,

To those who wanna keep us down,
I'm sorry i wont be around,
wont be around to watch the fall,

Oh and its often told, oh..
this story how it goes,
you never know,
you never know...

Sometimes its as though,
we each walk our own road.

To those who makes the tricks and traps,
i'm sorry i will not react,
i'm sorry i will not respond in kind,

To those who hold the keys to us,
I'm sorry ,guess i must be bust,
But it feels like my time,

An on the forecast ,we can see that,
there is a nothing , in the way ,

And yet i don't feel ,like giving up yet,
there must be something, here today,

And i'm gonna find it on my own,
regardless what you say,

You can't make me throw my,
can't make me throw my life away.


Ronald McD

Old Macdonald had a farm, it really went quite well,
animal kingdom's Genghis Khan, a blight on human health,
psychopath dressed up as a clown, feeding your children drugs,
so they can grow up nice and round, craving that meaty hug.

And every nation on the earth chows down,
on this absolute filth,
dystopian dinner to refresh your frown,
while you pay to get ill.

Subconscious colour control, get in dose up get out,
slow motion suicide to go, with a pop song to cover the sound,
E numbers and ecocide, a toxic hypnotic treat,
its breakfast lunch and tea to some, to me its just a poison for the sheep.

Still its a karma of a sort i guess, for the love of denial,
cos if you ignore the source of what you ingest,
only live for a while.

Just gimmie an unhappy meal to go,
i wish we could get out of this hole,
your eating a sandwich with no soul and i'm like no!no!no!

unhappy meal to go,
i wish we could get out of this hole,
your eating a sandwich with no soul and i'm like no!no!no!


Exploitees in matching caps, just trying to get by,
i've done the same but no one dreams,
of that being their lives.

This horrific homogeny, a cult of condiments,
rainforest killing hell and chips,
where billions are spent.

These days they don't even try claiming its food,
eat at your own risk,Cinderella like in that when it cools,
turns back into what it really is.



Sun On Snow

Perception is a gamble..
And the house always wins, thought i'd learned that well,
But so often i, seem to find myself,

"Tryna live up to, whatever picture's, currently in my head, and it always,
ends in disaster, must learn to master, being awareness led, oh i
thought i was living the dream but it seems like i just, never left my bed,
still i'm lucky enough to be loved and lost enough to be led"

And this moment now, has a secret to tell, but it won't,
let it out, while i'm under this spell i keep on..

"Tryna live up ta, whatever picture's, currently in my head, and it always,
ends in disaster, must learn to master, being awareness led, oh i
thought i was living the dream but it seems like i just, never left my bed,
still i'm lucky enough to be loved and lost enough to be led"
Lucky enough to be loved and lost enough to be led.




Memories Lost Now

Memories, lost now from the young ,
of a history burned before our eyes,
forgetting our mother tongue,
and with that its view on life,

Sons and Daughters of the empire,
turn your faces to the light,
the worlds been conquered and reconquered,
and the conquerers are conquered by the empire inside,

Faces, weathered by the storm,
tell their stories,
without words,
never, got the time to mourn,
tribes are scattered, like the birds.

Echoes, sung throughout the ages,
pieces of another sky,
parallels are all pervasive,
and the conquerers are conquered by the empire inside,

I'd burn, every flag on earth,
cos the blood will not wash out,
long before all of our births,
there were conquerers the whole world round,

Used to conquer from the ocean,
then we conquered from the air,
now the conquering is mostly in the mind,
and its invisible, cos its everywhere..



Dog in the maze

Prisoners who don't know they're prisoners,
serve time in jails that don't even exist,
Cos school’s like a shock in a harness,
for the dog a maze thats the kid,

So by the time that we all leave there,
its really no longer a choice,
now most of us wouldn't have a thing to say,
even if we were given a voice,

And we're not given a voice.

Yet underneath all of our,
pre programming, theres a power,
to reconnect with, endless repeat-less-ness,
and remember the cage isn't real,

Our species has never been sane,
but in the end oh all things change,
and we each have a piece,
of the jigsaw thats needed,
to complete the cycle and heal,
oh and heal.

Still once in a while the dog does leave,
and remembers the joy of release,
then either you're scum, or a hero,
depending which day of the week,

Cos most of the others who watch on,
As some disappear over that hill,
don't see, how by being slaves to fear of death,
How in truth, they've already bin killed,

And they probably never will.

- Master the frontal lobe, before it wrecks you're life,
Time is a waterfall, love is the speed of light-

Yeah underneath all of our,
pre programming, theres a power,
to reconnect with, endless repeat-less-ness,
and remember the cage isn't real,

Our species has never been sane,
but in the end oh all things change,
and we each have a piece,
of the jigsaw thats needed,
to complete the cycle and heal,
oh and heal.



Love Police

They're tearing us apart, its getting dark round here, so dark,
Seems loves a luxury, out of our income bracket's reach.

But..

"What if we tell em it was only a fling,
and you and me were never really a thing?,
maybe just maybe they'll give us some peace,
Cos i don't wanna be whats dragging you down,
seems there isn't really any way round,
dancing to the beat, of the love police..."

Oh in another life, you would be fine here by my side,
You move me like the moon, so far away still moves the tide,

"Some people don't really think anything of ,
the way the state makes information a drug,
i guess they can afford the fees,
But if you're struggling to make ends meet,
you better keep it all between the sheets,
away from the heat, of the love police.."

[When you're skint,
its hard enough already trying to do this romance thing,
and add to that,
what basically amounts to a relationship tax]

You'd probably better go, before we're turned in by our phones,
Trusted technology, will stab you in the back first chance it sees.

"I'm gonna miss you but its gotta be done,
so individually we can carry on,
you know i'll see you in my sleep,
Seems like we can do whatever we want,
till all your cards stop working at once,
and your stuffs out on the street,
with the love police."




Glad To Be Alive

Well you know i'm glad to be alive,
Cos 'i've been nearly not too many times,
And you can go your own way i'll go mine,
Whatever happens i know, i'll be fine,

Got this fire burning, in my soul,
That cannot be corrupted or controlled,
Ah kings and queens will never ever know,
How it feels to be rich in what cannot be owned.

Let me take this moment now,
To wish amazing days all ‘round.

Cos i feel like i'm finally ready to become,
The person i've been dreaming that i was for so long,
Well every time my heart got broke the size of it grew,
I'm grateful for each and every one of my blues.

You're more beautiful than you let on,
Compassion has the power of a nuclear bomb,
If hate is right, i'm far to happy being wrong,
To bother taking it on,

Some say that all they know, is they don't know,
And i'm like "yeah but do you really though ?"

Oh i feel like i'm finally ready to become,
The person i've been dreaming that i was for so long,
Well every time my heart got broke the size of it grew,
I'm grateful for each and every one of my blues.
