Uniform

By Jezen Thomas


Forced into uniformity
Noble elders were prodding me
Neat, trimmed and tidy

Walking in a line
Lacking personality
Single file

Rigid suits in regement
A synchronised experiment
Made like the others, i'm just the same
I've got those noble elders to blame

Blinding lack of colour
Spectrum scale of grey
It hides decay

Walking in a line
Lacking personality
Single file

Rigid suits in regement
A synchronised experiment
Made like the others, i'm just the same
I've got those noble elders to blame

You can't win when you are greatly outnumbered and overpowered
You can't win when you are identical to your enemy
It won't work for you or anyone else
How did those elders become noble in the first place?

March. March. March.
The uniform smothers what you have made
March. March. March.
The uniform smothers you until you fade.

Fade Away....

Rigid suits in regement
(Fade Away)
A synchronised experiment
(Fade Away)
Made like the others, i'm just the same
(Fade Away)
My uniform smothers heart-felt pain.
