Propaganda

by Inertia - Aquarius

Mystery holds you tethered in fractured truths
One side: propaganda, garnering your patriotism and support
The other is a deep suspicion that honesty is never worn
On the sleeve of its commanders

If we decide to accept the word of our news agency as is
We fail to exercise our patriotic right to ask questions
Throwing caution to the wind, the analytical mind
is not challenge, and we may be brainwashed

We know the facts here back home
How much of those facts are correct?

This is war
We decide our sides, but we must keep them honest
We must keep oursleves informed
And read between the fucken lines!
