Brave New World Lyrics

[Verse 1]
As to the drifters of the high rift plains
They can see the ashes, and the acid rain
It turns to dust before my very eyes
And it chokes to death within the smog it lies

[Chorus]
​Take one look at your skies
And in the darkness realize
Kill fear, the power of lies
For we will not be hypnotized

[Verse 2]
Turn back the clock within your glass of sand
To a time of love within this blackened land
A silent child climbs a mound of char
Where he plants a seed that grows beyond the stars

[Chorus]
Take one look at your skies
And in the darkness realize
Kill fear, the power of lies
For we will not be hypnotized


Take one look at your skies
And in the darkness realize
Kill fear, the power of lies
For we will not be hypnotized
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh

Take one look at your skies
And in the darkness realize
Kill fear, the power of lies
For we will not be hypnotized

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

It is obvious that Josh has taken influence from Aldous Huxley’s classic novel “Brave New World” and used it as the theme to this song.
