Mannequins Songtext

Mannequins Songtext
Silence
Is it a yes or a no?
Or does it just keep celebrities afloat?
They′re like the Swiss
Say they're neutral
But they′re quick enough to take your gold
You got money, got a platform and influence
But you use it to spread hedonistic ignorance
Because your hands are filthy
From those bloodstained pay cheques
You're just Mannequins for the system
You'd wear genocide if Gap would pay enough
And in return you lower the standards of our culture
Everyone
Use your station
Speak for the voiceless
Silence
Is compliance
With the criminals
Science
Whose side are you on?
You′re an accessory to tyranny
And you
Are solely to blame
For the misuse of your technology
You give us medicine but you also gave us the disease
Nothing more than a prostitute with expertise
When you could do only good
Like a torturer that′s only following their orders
Protecting lies while the truth is poisoning
And I hope the ghosts of all your victims
Will haunt you
But in politics, in science and art
Who pays the piper calls the tune
But who needs who?
Who needs who?
Everyone
Use your station
Speak for the voiceless
Silence
Is compliance
With the criminals
House of cards
When it burns down
You'll be in there too
Is it a yes or a no?
Or does it just keep celebrities afloat?
They′re like the Swiss
Say they're neutral
But they′re quick enough to take your gold
You got money, got a platform and influence
But you use it to spread hedonistic ignorance
Because your hands are filthy
From those bloodstained pay cheques
You're just Mannequins for the system
You'd wear genocide if Gap would pay enough
And in return you lower the standards of our culture
Everyone
Use your station
Speak for the voiceless
Silence
Is compliance
With the criminals
Science
Whose side are you on?
You′re an accessory to tyranny
And you
Are solely to blame
For the misuse of your technology
You give us medicine but you also gave us the disease
Nothing more than a prostitute with expertise
When you could do only good
Like a torturer that′s only following their orders
Protecting lies while the truth is poisoning
And I hope the ghosts of all your victims
Will haunt you
But in politics, in science and art
Who pays the piper calls the tune
But who needs who?
Who needs who?
Everyone
Use your station
Speak for the voiceless
Silence
Is compliance
With the criminals
House of cards
When it burns down
You'll be in there too
