about
This song set the tone for the whole album and beget the idea of Disco Dystopia. The song went through a LOT of changes. Initially Collapse was almost cheerful but the more I worked on it the more it became apparent that the occasional rays of light that peeked from under its layers needed to be extinguished.
lyrics
A minority injects
Balances without checks
And endless capitulation
A parable in reverse
Often as not unheard
It's savage indoctrination
Explosion of disinformation
Kaleidoscope of lies
A system in perpetual collapse
Inoculated not against fiction
Only fact
A population ill equipped to act
An exercise in group think
Society on the brink
Of total disintegration
Eternally insincere
Dear Leader erupts in cheers
A Show of appreciation
Explosion of disinformation
Kaleidoscope of lies
A system in perpetual collapse
Inoculated not against fiction
Only fact
A population ill equipped to act
