Information War from FLARE by Pat Wictor

4. Information War (P. Wictor)

Here comes the bullhorn, all that yelling
I ain’t buying what they’re selling
They want you to believe the truth don’t matter anymore
It’s just the latest propaganda in the information war

Which way is up? It’s hard to know
Why should I trust the one who lies the most?
They say we need a strong man to steer the ship to shore
It’s just the latest propaganda in the information war

What about the truth? Let the record show
Someone stood for right, and history will know
We tried to set the stage to end the dark age
Of the information war

Fearful minds, ready to receive
Say it enough times, and people will believe
Even when they know it isn’t true, they still cheer for more
It’s just the latest propaganda in the information war

What about the truth? Let the record show
Someone stood for right, and history will know
We tried to set the stage to end the dark age
Of the information war

No sword, no shield, but we have to fight
Be brave, take heart, keep looking for the light
If you see a cloud of smoke that hides the sun outside your door
It’s just the latest propaganda in the information war
