Welcome to a police state
Where watchful machines keep their eyes on you
Blood of the free coagulate
Our leaders maintain that we'll make it through

The heroes are all vanquished
Corruption ruling the world
Liberty has been banished
Agency lost to the whirlwind

Lockdown
Going under
Lockdown
Darkness falls
Lockdown
Torn asunder
We will never hear the call

Lockdown
Days of plunder
Lockdown
Evil reigns
Lockdown
Distant thunder
Eternity a life in chains

Hammers swing in the desert
Building their monuments to surrender
All must join in the effort
Honor the heroes that we misremember

The schools are filled with liars
Museums lay in ruins
Towers built to inspire
Are lost into the whirlwind

Lockdown
Going under
Lockdown
Darkness falls
Lockdown
Torn asunder
We will never hear the call

Lockdown
Days of plunder
Lockdown
Evil reigns
Lockdown
Distant thunder
Eternity a life in chains

First they took my body
But my mind was still free
Now they come for my mind
Is there anything left of me

We're lost in
Lockdown
Going under
Lockdown
Darkness falls
Lockdown
Torn asunder
We will never hear the call

Lockdown
Days of plunder
Lockdown
Evil reigns
Lockdown
Distant thunder
Eternity a life in chains
