IRIS (Will Ryan) — Surveillance Live

[Intro, San Japan] So, this one is one that you've not heard of. This one is off, I have to announce this now, uh, we did come out with a first album called Heart of an Artist? Thank you very much, and we're now currently working, fuck, already on a second album, and I'm calling it Goliath's Throne. Um, and we basically want to tackle the online community, in a sense where we all feel a little bit endangered, we feel a little bit attacked, we all feel a little bit-- sometimes we get those days where we feel a little bit attacked on our own side. So, I've got some songs for you! If anything, so this one is called Surveillance. Hit it (Is anyone there? The eyes... They're watching us...) (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! *unintelligible*) [Verse 1] With every corner you would walk Held a parasite As you cross the streams that they would stalk Exploded like dynamite And with that You're on bulletin boards They started a war The fate you take was just a tap Through the looking glass They have eyes beholding your discourse Showing no remorse And with that You're now worldwide No end in sight So please save your breath [Chorus] It's the final demeanor to our lives (We control our fate) We cannot stay retreated in our hives (What's to expose when we're free?) They were so blinded The moment they turned on the lights But we say no more to your constant Surveillance [Verse 2] (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! I can't-- I'm gonna splash water all over you and I don't think that's wise!) With all the sacrifices made Curses validate We provoke their hunger with a slice Of their paradise And with that They're stuck to your keys Bend over please (Breakdown.) You're so blinded You can't see That the wicked have a rope tied to you So turn away Turn from what they wanna say Cause your fuel is their fire Their mortal desire When removed of their mask They'll face the facts We should've saved our breath (Here we go.) [Chorus] It's the final demeanor to our lives (We control our fate) We cannot stay retreated in our hives (What's to expose when we're free?) They were so blinded The moment they turned on the lights But we say no more to your constant Surveillance [Bridge] Up above your head Screaming they've found you The filthiest dark pits of hell have surrounded you No more feeling complacent It's no one can hear you say stop Silence everything Anywhere's better than here Block out the noise Can you hear yourself breathe life Let go of the fear that they're near [Chorus] It's the final demeanor to our lives (We can control our fate) We cannot stay retreated in our hives (What's to expose when we're free?) They were so blinded The moment they turned on the lights But we say no more to your constant Surveillance [Outro] Silence
