'84 Songtext
von Petteri Sariola

I wake up flat on my face,
On a street in a modern place.
It′s so bright,
It burns my eyes.
A great wall standing tall right next to me,
Full of names on TV screens,
And they scream: (they scream)

"Better keep your head down and follow the lead.
Keep that happy face and we will be set free.
We built this wall for we need to feel safe.
We don't need to deal with the world face to face!"


Now I let go and start to climb,
When people shout:
"That man has lost his mind!" (That man has lost his mind!)
From the top I see the other side.
Different people worshiping the same kind of walls.
They hate the opposite but they sing the same songs
The songs of ′84.

"Better keep your head down and follow the lead.
Keep that happy face and we will be set free.
We built this wall for we need to feel safe.
We don't need to deal with the world face to face!
And now leader's got something to say."

"Come, come to me
And I will ease all the frustration from your world.
And then you′re given it all.
Your name will be here, on this wall!"

"Come, come to us
And we will burn all the hesitation from the world
And when you′re given it all
Your name will be here, on this wall!"
