When you’re told what to think

By populist rhetoric and martial law

When you’re told when to blink

Twenty twenty two is nineteen eighty four.

---

When your mental health’s on the brink

From constant pressure galore

And your heart starts to sink

Twenty twenty two is nineteen eighty four.

---

When your only relief is drugs and drink

And your spirit is broken to its core

As they dismantle every link

Twenty twenty two is nineteen eighty four.

---

When your future’s as bright as invisible ink

Wondering; is it really worth fighting for?

When dreams so big are forced to shrink

Twenty twenty two is nineteen eighty four.
