I shall say not a thing
I shall think not a thing
The seeing eye silences me

My words aren’t my own
So words be not shown
And my thoughts to the void, I will keep

I dare not to blink
I dare not to wink
For the eye and I know all

But if nothing is said
Only actions instead
We all will still meet our downfall

Sit still my old friends
Straight tall, never bend
As the hours tick by without care

As we watch our lives pass
As sand drips down a glass
And freedom is abolished everywhere
