1984 (Infinite jest) Lyrics

The Used

Heartwork

Lyrics to 1984 (Infinite jest)
No one is safe
Closer than I wanna be, imaginary enemy
Screen in my face
Never was a part of me, this part of my lobotomy

But wait, while everyone’s wasted the jaded today
The prettiest corpses, the real black parade is waiting
Decay is chasing, my face compared to your face

Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this

You keep me safe
Only way to set us free, severing the artery. Mountains of waste
Celebrated fantasy, televise the tragedy

But wait, while everyone’s wasted the jaded today
The prettiest corpses, the real black parade is waiting
Decay is chasing, my face compared to your face

Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this
Ignorance is this

If I open my eyes
Would I see what they planned for me?
Would I rather stay asleep and dreaming?
If I lay down and die
Have we lost the revolution?
Ignorance is this
