Lyrics

Tranquillizer

Wow…really
My calm, my drug
My justice, my saviour
My killer, my mirror
Confessor and lover
My killer, truths and lies
My mirror, desensitise me
Confessor, shaping minds
And lover, educate me

Solid state pacifier
Beaming in.
Tranquillise me
Super cool by direction
Keep in line, your intention
Smoother than straight oppression
Shaping minds by direction
TV’s soon mother, teacher
Full control pushing

My calm, truths and lies
My drug, desensitise me
My justice, shaping minds
My saviour, educate me
My calm, truths and lies
My drug, desensitise me
My justice, shaping minds
My saviour, educate me
Fill me up with drugs enough
To see behind the lies.
Wash me out to clean my doubts
Away from off my mind.
My calm, my drug
My justice, my saviour
My killer, solid state pacifier
My mirror, beaming in tranquillise me
Confessor, super cool by direction
And lover, keep in line, your intention
My calm, truths and lies
My drug, desensitise me
My justice, shaping minds
My saviour, educate me
My killer, truths and lies
My mirror, desensitise me
Confessor, shaping minds
And lover, educate me

Solid state pacifier
Beaming in tranquillise me
Super cool by direction
Keep in line, you’re intention.
Solid state pacifier
Beaming in tranquillise me
Super cool by direction
Keep in line, you’re intention.

All necessities provided
All boredom amused
All anxieties tranquillised
