Mentally Murdered Lyrics & Chords By Napalm Death

Your aspirations, unable to stretch
Beyond the barriers of what's expected
As the free thought you were born with
Becomes externally polluted

Lose sight of your ideals
In their brainwashing institutions
Predetermine your values
To befit your substandard existence
Discouraging creativity
To aim for empty ambitions

Living up to others' expectations
Takes hold of your assiduity

Mentally murdered

The will to succeed
Overpowers the will to resist

Mentally murdered

Always up to the mark
Set the wheels in motion
A fake sense of security
From your invariable position

Sinking in the crowd
A face minus expression
A mouth that echoes words
Recycled from tradition

Your only contentness
Is in living a lie

Mentally murdered

Do you possess the strength
To re-create your own life?
