Mandatory Option

What's up with the silence?
Down with the silence.
Where we're going and where we stay.
Content with this silence
Content with everything left to be.
Content with this silence
Everything we already know.
Content with this silence
We will not be grounded

This is a battle
Why call it a (battle)?
This is a war
Why call it a (war)?

This isn't my idea of freedom
And where did we go wrong?
So what now? We compromise? Compromise you.
So what now? We compromise? I promise you.

We resort to the violence
but it's the silence that keeps us where we're going and staying
Content with this silence, up with silence
Some people try
Some people die
