War is Peace
We wage this war,
it's the only way, they say,
to keep the peace.
War is the only solution,
they say, it's for the best.
This war is what keeps
the world at peace with each other.

Freedom is Slavery
They make the choices for us,
it gives us freedom
from the stress of independence.
We would fall to our own
weaknesses if we were free.
Freedom means to be enslaved
to the very choices some desire.

Ignorance is Strength*
We keep our eyes shut tight,
We needn't know the truth,
it only leads to weakness.
The world is a scary place
and it's easier to know that
black is white and up is down.
