People Are Scared Lyrics

Nobody says anything on buses
And it's not the noise the engine makes
You can watch them all staring nervous
Sit at the back it's the safest place

People are scared to say hello
The flick of the fag, the shifting eyes
Stare in amusement then look away
The conscious battle of who to despise
Self-restriction and paranoia

Self-belief and the silent laugh
The inner conflict between one another
When you're all the same it seems so daft

Nobody says anything on buses
And that's why people kill themselves
Desperation against the world
Can't find a way to express themsleves
Society breeds hate and derision
But society is only a mass of people
Striving to be god at the expense of others
Striving to be better than their nextdoor neighbour

People are scared underneath their silence
People are getting more afraid
They turn to their leaders for help and guidance
And then the system wins again
And will carry on winning 'til god knows when
'Til people start to talk to each other
Everyone just like a brother
'Til the morals and fear that divides us all
Is no longer the excuse for the system's rule

'Til the morals and fear that divides us all
Is no longer the excuse for the system's rule
'Til the morals and fear that divides us all
Is no longer the excuse for the system's rule
'Til the morals and fear that divides us all
Is no longer the excuse for the system's rule
'Til the morals and fear that divides us all
Is no longer the excuse for the system's rule
'Til the morals and fear that divides us all
Is no longer the excuse for the system's rule
