I'm feeling strange about the people around me
They're movin groovin to a sinister beat
Underneath it all something ain't quite right
Moving silent in the dead of the night
I want to believe there's nothing going on
But all signs point to something wrong
I'll find the answer to this mystery
Or be killed for what I believe
(He's so close he's on to us)
(I have to turn him to dust)
Exposing the truth might be my noose
(We have to cut him loose)
It ain't so innocent inside the church
There's an evil front there where they lurch
Blinking gadgets to record our thoughts
Telling us what ought to be bought
Through these shades I see it's black and white
They're hiding the truth in broad daylight
Politicians and grocery clerks
There's no shadow where they don't work
(He's so close he's on to us)
(I have to turn him to dust)
Exposing the truth has been my noose
(We have to cut him loose)
Media tell me gotta keep my place
But i'm pretty sure that they're from outer space
They speak into watches and send their drones
Cause they're trying to make Earth their new home
How can I show you what they really are
They come to destroy us from some distant star
Look through these shades and it's plain to see
That we were never even really free
(He's so close he's on to us)
(I have to turn him to dust)
Exposing the truth might be my noose
(We have to cut him loose)
I found my allies now we're in a war
Cause they're trying make Earth their new world
Don't look at the TV don't watch the ads
Cause everything that they say is bad
Global warming is terraforming
They want to make us their slaves
I will save our kind if I can
As long as they don't catch wind of my plan
(He's so close he's on to us)
(I had to turn him to dust)
Exposing the truth has been my noose
(We had to cut him loose)
Tried to warn you
He actually thought I cared
Got our weapons and our special tools
He want to make us fools
There's no way I'm gonna let him win
I'll wipe off that stupid grin
The blood is shed
His friends are dead
This town is painted red
He was so close he was on to us
I had to turn him to dust
Exposing the truth became his noose
I had to cut him loose
