Hall of Violence - DIY Dystopia

Lyrics: Samuel Hunt
Music: Joachim Müller

Grew up reading Orwell,
The Road and Wanting Seed
Brave New World, Lord of the Flies
Who pays their lessons heed?

Modernity's a Cakewalk
No more challenge to survive
We might be doomed to de-evolve
best time to be alive

MIGHT BE A DARK PASSION
HOLOGRAPHIC FUN FOR ALL
NOUGHT BUT DUST AND ASHES
D.I.Y. DYSTOPIA

'CAUSE NO ONE EVER FORCED YOU
TO SUBSIST BEHIND A SCREEN
REALITY'S DIVORCED YOU
LOST CONTROL OF WHAT YOU SEE

Nothing like Bladerunner
or Nineteen Eighty-Four
It's not like life in Africa
It's right inside your door

1st world Problems
externalize the Blame
Set up to fail / Pretend you
Wouldn't do that just the same

Might still be hope left for ya
In this DIY dystopia
(Entertainment) on command
We've finally reached the promised land

Oblivion, Twelve Monkeys
Road Warrior and Threads
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
Behind your forehead

Entertainment cornucopia
of hedonistic vice
Our DIY Dystopia's
a real-life paradise

MIGHT BE A DARK PASSION
HOLOGRAPHIC FUN FOR ALL
NOUGHT BUT DUST AND ASHES
D.I.Y. DYSTOPIA

'CAUSE NO ONE EVER FORCED YOU
TO SUBSIST BEHIND A SCREEN
REALITY'S DIVORCED YOU
LOST CONTROL OF WHAT YOU SEE
