From over the air comes a voice without care,
Says we're down all right
But day out and day in from what he's been sayin'
We're in for a fight
I glance at myself and the world rushin' by
I can see for myself and the fear comes alive
Shade of termination
We're dyin' to survive
1984
1984
Machine is the mind
It will rule by design
So you're never alone
We store information
Without confirmation
Accept the unknown
I think to myself of the times we have tried
To be true to ourselves and to live with the lie...
Avoid the contradictions
Just keep yourself alive

I can't help it
I can't help it
And I can't help it...
Life is your decision
We choose to do or die
Can you live with the reality of 1985
Polite conversation
Ain't no consolation
For blanks in your eyes
Amid the confusion
There lives the illusion
That love will survive
But I got a chance with myself if I try
To be sure of myself and myself choose to try
Fight for stimulation and love to stay alive
