“There’s an evil virus that’s threatening mankind It’s not state of the art, it’s a serious state of the mind The muggers, the backstabbers, the two faced elite A menace to society, a social disease To brainwash the mind is a social disorder The cynics, the apathy one-upmanship order Watching beginnings of social decay Gloating and sneering at life’s disarray Eating away at your own self esteem Pouncing on every word that you might be saying To attack someone’s mind is a social disorder The constitution, the government, martial law order Superficially smiling a shake of the hand As soon as your back is turned treason is planned When every good thing’s laid to rest By the governments hate, by the constitution and their lies And every time you think you’re safe And when you go to turn away You know they’re sharpening all their knives All in your mind All in your head Try to relate it All in your mind All in your head Try to escape it Without a conscience they destroy And that’s a thing that they enjoy They’re a sickness that’s in all of our minds They want to sink the ship and leave The way they laugh at you and me You know it happens all the time But it only happens in your mind The rats in the cellar you know who you are… Or do you? Watching beginnings of social decay…” — Finnegan. Poem appeared in "BBF3". Slow Riot for New Zerø Kanada, Godspeed You! Black Emperor
