Solidarity Steve

Are you safe behind your locked door?
Free in a prison of your own design
Blind to the war happening beyond
Push it outside over the picket fence
Venture outside at your own expense

Are you safe behind your locked door?
Ignoring the fate of those around you
As long as you have your own security
Who cares about the wider community
Trade in the truths for the happy pills

Are you safe behind your locked door?
Big brother shielding you from the horror
Protecting you from every neighbour
Only go outside to fulfil your labour
Shut yourself off glued to a screen

Are you safe behind your locked door
As they wage war on the poor and people
Hear the doors kicked in down the street
Turn the TV up keep on buying treats
You are safe with the security state mate

Are you safe behind your locked door?
Experiencing the world through a screen
Where you can drown out the screams
Close your eyes to the blood and gore
Protected due to the law and order

Are you safe behind your locked door?
Will you awake from this Orwellian nightmare
Hiding under your bed knock, knock, knock
When did it become too much to care
Is it too late to cry out in despair?

If only you went outside
The few could become the many
No longer suffering alone
Standing strong and tall
Depose them from their thrones
Storming their ivory towers
Reshaping your society
To work for your community
