The Appeal & The Mindsweep I

Enter Shikari

    This is an appeal
    To the struggling and striving stakeholders of this planet
    This floating rock we call earth
    Alas, that means you
    That means:
    Everyone of your acquaintance
    Every figure your eyes skim past in the street
    Every charlatan still to defeat
    Every tender face you find solace in

    Now mimic the mindset william wallace was in
    Dismount - disembark - descend from your existance
    Slacken your angst and decant your hate
    'Cos in the long run they're about as useful
    As poruing acid onto your dinner plate

    To muzzled masses that lead lives of deafening desperation:
    With excalibur aloft king arthur earned the throne
    But it's our minds we got to wrench out of the stone
    Don't be fooled by its simplicity
    There was never a broadcat made of such urgency
    'Cos at no time before us

    Did we grasp the scope of this emergency?
    Ladle out love and logic by the boatload
    Equipped with that cargo you can take any road
    Now grab life; seize time
    This fight is for human kind

    I am a mindsweeper, focus on me
    I am a mindsweeper, focus on me
    I will read your mind
    I dart through rapids; through streams of thought
    Then suddenly I started losing my mind
    Catapulting through the uncharted
    I could no longer tell if these were your thoughts or mine

    And if was as if I held a mirror up to my soul
    Who was the author?
    And who was the observer?
    For at the last analysis our thoughts coalesced
    Your are not alone
    You have entered volatile territory

    You have started a journey; you're part of this story
    And this, this was just a glimpse
    You've no idea what you've got yourself into
    I am a mindsweeper, focus on me
    I am a mindsweeper, focus on me
