Explores the impact the mainstream media can have on one’s psyche, specifically regarding the “war on terror.”
Starting to get under my skin
But I thought I was immune
I thought that they’d never win me over to their fear cultivating
Am I trying to fight against the inevitable
Always thought my skin was thicker than all this
I thought that I’d never get drawn in
Then something happened and I don’t know
Why I just didn’t turn off the damn radio
It kept drawing me and as I lost all control
And for a moment I became what I fear most
What I fear most
They say were next on the list so we best be prepared
And the only way to resist as everybody be so scared
Don’t stop don’t think to question anything
We’ve got to do our part for democracy
We’ve got to be suspicious now of everything and everyone who breathes
And who’s just a little different from you and me
Then something happened and I don’t know
Why I just didn’t turn off the damn radio
It kept drawing me and as I lost all control
And for a moment I became what I fear most
What I fear most
But I thought I was immune
I thought that they’d never win me over to their fear cultivating
Am I trying to fight against the inevitable
Always thought my skin was thicker than all this
I thought that I’d never get drawn in
Then something happened and I don’t know
Why I just didn’t turn off the damn radio
It kept drawing me and as I lost all control
And for a moment I became what I fear most
What I fear most
They say were next on the list so we best be prepared
And the only way to resist as everybody be so scared
Don’t stop don’t think to question anything
We’ve got to do our part for democracy
We’ve got to be suspicious now of everything and everyone who breathes
And who’s just a little different from you and me
Then something happened and I don’t know
Why I just didn’t turn off the damn radio
It kept drawing me and as I lost all control
And for a moment I became what I fear most
What I fear most
