There's an evil virus that's threatening mankind
|
Not state of the art, a serious state of the mind
|
The muggers, the backstabbers, the two faced elite
|
A menance to society, a social disease
|
|
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
|
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
|
|
Watching beginnings of social decay
|
Gloating or sneering at life's disarray
|
Eating away at your own self esteem
|
Pouncing on every word that you might be saying
|
|
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
|
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
|
|
Superficially smiling a shake of the hand
|
As soon as the back is turned Treachery is planned
|
|
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
|
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
|
|
Watching beginnings of social decay
|
Gloating or sneering...at life's disarray
|
|
When every good thing's laid to waste
|
By all the jealousy and hate
|
By all the acid wit and rapier lies
|
|
And every time you thing you're save
|
And when you go to turn away
|
You know they're sharpening all their paper knives
|
|
All in your mind
|
All in your head
|
Try to relate it
|
|
All in your mind
|
All in your head
|
Try to escape it
|
|
Whitout a conscience they destroy
|
And that's a thing that they enjoy
|
They're a sickness that's in all our minds
|
|
They want to sink the ship and leave
|
The way They laugh at you and me
|
You know it happens all the time
|
|
All in your mind
|
All in your head
|
Try to relate it
|
|
All in your mind
|
All in your head
|
Try to escape it
|
|
The rats in the cellar you know who you are...
|
Or do you?
|
|
Watching beginnings of social decay....
