Текст песни Technology Takeover (Granite State) с переводом

This country’s finished, it’s been sliding downhill a long time

And everybody’s got a cellphone that makes pancakes, so they don’t want to make

any trouble

The air is thick, I’m wearing thin

And so much shit going on I don’t know where to begin

Society’s ill, we know that the government’s corrupt, we know that

The questions is: «how to control that?»

They got us programmed and socially networked

Think of who’s seeing all your emails and texts first

And no one communicates face-to-face

We’re all depending on Facebook, blogs, and Myspaces

Kids committing suicide for something as small

There’s a rumour on the internet, that couldn’t resolve

And I watch as a whole generation free-falls

To a digital death we’ve all come to accept

This wild world of poison, I’m caught in its web

It got in my head and I just want to disconnect

Cause until we start avoiding this automated noise

We’ll be autotuned out till there’s nothing left

What have we become?

It’s out of my hands, it’s out of control

I’ve gone numb, out of my mind, it’s over

What have we become?

It’s out of my mind, it’s out of control

I’ve gone numb, t-t-technology is taking over

What the hell they letting kids watch now?

And apologize for later when no one is around

I know it sounds harmless, right? But look at the truth

You sticking guns in their face, robbing them of their youth

It’s nothing to lose a million dollars breaking the law

If your ratings go up and haters wanna see more

This is media war, how the rich control the poor

But the clicker’s in your hand, so who’s really at the core

Of the problem? To the fox I play possum

Wait for my chance, then I strike like boxing

I ain’t like talking, people never listen

Advertising everywhere, I call it sella-vision

Who the fuck are y’all kidding? This is planetary prison

Every single one of us no matter what your skin in

No matter where you’re living, your god or what you’re giving

It’s time to put the shovel down and think of why you’re digging

And not a secret anymore, it’s all put on blast

And fifteen seconds of fame is Youtube trash

But this necessary evil that we go through

Is the first and only option that we go to

In the information age we’re caught in the haze

The talking heads, walking dead, living what they say

Ain’t nothing gonna change until we change our frame of mind

We’re consumed with doom to fold in or die

Power does what it wants and now they just put it right out front and say this

is what we’re doing to you, folks. People have been bought off by gizmos and

toys in this country and no one questions things anymore
