lyrics

They told us, to forget our heroes because they were the oppressors
They told us, to burn the churches because they were antiquated
They told us, to trust in education as the way to our salvation
They told us, to mock authority because they created victims

And this is what they promised

Get yourself ready for a new world religion, blue skies and luxury is the future that we're giving
We know that memory is short, over time, that's why we're easin' it, easin' it
Get yourself ready for the days of happy living, milk and honey flows never-ending like a river
We control temporal thoughts, as we prime, that's why we're easin' it, easin' it

They told us, to lose our morals and just follow our obsessions
They told us, that life's only meaning is material possessions
They told us, parenthood was futile without state intervention
They told us, to love the wealthy and we'd follow their ascension

And this is what they promised

Get yourself ready for a new world religion, blue skies and luxury is the future that we're giving
We can turn a stronger force against itself, that's why we're easin' it, easin' it
Get yourself ready for the days of happy living, milk and honey flows never-ending like a river
We can subvert you in a bloodless coup, that's why we're easin' it, easin' it

They told us, to leave our family and embrace our divisions
They told us, that some were privileged and needed more derision
They told us, that we were equal and reject stratification
They told us, masculinity is answered with castration

And this is what they promised

Get yourself ready for a new world religion, blue skies and luxury is the future that we're giving
Your identity becomes defunct, just a stat, that's why we're easin' it, easin' it
Get yourself ready for the days of happy living, milk and honey flows never-ending like a river
As you slowly self-destruct while asleep, that's why we're easin' it, easin' it

Many have called without report but the clarion trumpets have finally answered in the form of pounding drums, vertiginous synthesizers, thunderous bass, ominous guitars, and guttural vocals telling stories intended to entertain, pontificate, shock, and inspire.
