[Verse 1]
Shikari was a third generation Aztec
His tribe accepting human reality
It was the basis of their ability to sustain with humble tranquility
But civilisations encouraged religions which in turn introduced depravity
And that was as big a realisation as when my boy Newton discovered gravity (hahaha)
'Cause it transformed the way we bounce about on a daily basis
Not content with a doubt about the knowledge of who's up there
Quick! Give him a name, a trident and a chair, sharpish!
What happened to wonder?
Why can't we accept we're not capable of thunder?
So we welcome the lies with open arms
And we turn into suckers when they turn on the charm

[Pre-Chorus]
You're trying to run us all into the ground
To be swallowed by the soil and trapped by the rain
In your concrete garden of falseness
You shout through our speakers and we don't turn them off
'Cause trapped in silence it's tougher
But this time we'll turn the speakers off
And we won't stay silent
We'll make as much noise as we can

[Chorus]
And I ask, "What's a thought without a voice to voice it?"
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
And I ask, "What's a thought without a voice to voice it?"
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
[Verse 2]
The original affluent society
Floating free of capitalistic anxiety
But all that's survived now is the pack vibe
But the catch is dogs don't eat other dogs
We're able animals employed by criminals in this cannibalistic society
Where we scrimp and save just to behave with the utmost propriety

[Pre-Chorus]
You're trying to run us all into the ground
To be swallowed by the soil and trapped by the rain
In your concrete garden of falseness
You're trying to run us all into the ground
To be swallowed by the soil and trapped by the rain
In your concrete garden of falseness
You shout through our speakers and we don't turn them off
'Cause trapped in silence it's tougher
But this time we'll turn the speakers off
And we won't stay silent
We'll make as much noise as we can

[Chorus]
And I ask, "What's a thought without a voice to voice it?"
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
And I ask, "What's a thought without a voice to voice it?"
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
We will shout our heads off
We won't stop until you hear
We won't stop until you trip up upon yourselves
I see a kid with his mouth shut
And I ask, "What's a thought without a voice to voice it?"
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
I see a kid with his mouth shut
And I ask, "What's a thought without a voice to voice it?"
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
It's just a thought
[Bridge]
And we won't stay silent
We'll make as much noise as we can
We won't stay silent
We'll make as much noise as we can

[Outro]
We won't stay silent
We won't stay silent
We won't stay silent
We won't stay silent
We won't stay silent
We won't stay silent
We won't stay silent
We won't stay silent
We won't stay silent
