Kill The Messenger - The Virginmarys

Drown that mind so wild at war

And still there’s things you can’t ignore

Shoot the messenger

Kill the messenger

Force-fed fear washed down with shame

As history repeats again

Shoot the messenger

Kill the messenger

They’re in your dreams

They’re in your head

Beneath the sheets inside your bed

The influence is always passing through

They’re in the choice

They’re in the rules

They’re in the news inside the schools

They can’t be held responsible

Can’t be held responsible for you

On the brink upon the shelf

We think we think for ourselves

Shoot the messenger

Kill the messenger

A baby’s born the air is thin

We’re poisoning the oxygen

The righteous path is always how we do

Control behind a minister

Is something far more sinister

They can’t be held responsible

Can’t be held responsible for you

Kill the messenger

The time has come to stop the clocks

Find a key or pick the lock

It’s time to step outside the mind

Time to step outside the mind

They’re in your dreams

They’re in your head

Beneath the sheets inside your bed

The influence is always passing through

They’re in the choice

They’re in the rules

They’re in the news inside the schools

They can’t be held responsible

Can’t be held responsible for you

For you
