Thought Crime

Hush hush, don't talk about it
Don't tell a soul
Hush hush, don't talk about it
Don't let anybody know

We don't have to worry 'cause they're watching us sleep
They're always near
They've got the finest innovations in privacy-deprivation
So we can't afford to dream
Please, please, please won't you cure our minds before we lose control?
'cause I don't wanna know it if I'm not even allowed a soul

We're not criminals, we're not criminals
We're not criminals but we play the part
We're not criminals, we're not criminals
We're not criminals but we can always start

Speaking without talking is a trick of the living but a sign of the dead
(we are the dead)
Here comes a candle to light you to bed
Here comes a chopper to chop off your head

We're not criminals, we're not criminals
We're not criminals but we look the part
We're not criminals, we're not criminals
We're not criminals but we can always start

They'll find us, they'll see us, they'll never believe us
And they're killers, they're killers, oh my god
I said you liars, you liars, renegade Messiahs
Why'd you lead us to silence? Oh my god
I said they'll find us, they'll see us, they'll never believe us
And they're killers, they're killers, oh my god
I said you liars, you liars, renegade Messiahs
Why'd you lead us to silence? Oh my god

The Small Hours Los Angeles, California

It was a dark, cold morning in March and the clocks were striking three. Rob, John and JB sat motionless in the small hours, surrounded by the complete darkness of an almost featureless room. They had not moved in several hours and in the insignificant illumination of the starless night, their bright-red ocular-protectors seemed as colourless and monotone as their party issue coveralls and Welling ... more
