Freedom is slavery
I cannot win this war
I cannot do it alone
It tears me apart
knowing that I can't fight back
I came here to be free
I came to escape my life of servitude
Sadly, I was mistaken
Freedom is slavery
You're a servant to the system
no matter where you go
You say you're an individual
I laugh at your stupidity
We all follow the same system
Instincts driving us to follow a crowd
No matter where we go
we unknowingly conform to some way of life
You think that you're free?
You're still a slave to society's images.
No matter what you say
Your freedom is still slavery

War is peace
I am a soldier, trained to keep the peace
Whether it be with bullet or bayonet
I'll assure you that it will be ok
as I beat you to the floor
The foreign powers are at ease
They have all the fear in the world
We never stop and talk things out
A saber is all we need
You people cannot do things peacefully
You cannot understand civility
I do
I know what pain can suppress
It keeps the violence down
It puts out the fires of hatred in your heart
I can calm you with my bare knuckles
War is peace
War is the only way to keep the peace
I have learned the easy way
I lived through this all before

Ignorance is strength
Ignore the brutal beatings, boys
Big Brother is always watching
He cannot see inside your head
but he has eyes and ears all over
Ignore the public executions, men
Push all emotions aside
Let your heart turn to ice
Don't show weakness in this world
You cannot revolt against a police state
You are one and they are one million
To think you can make a difference is insane
Ignore those lustful urges, boys
Don't let yourself be aroused
Only do your duty to the Party
for physical pleasure is forbidden
Ignorance is strength, men
for you have no other choices
Ignore the voices in your head
Murder your emotions
Don't let them catch you caring
