Hidden Instincts - Watchtower

Maintaining a safe social order

Is one of our system’s greatest chores

We’re afraid to walk the streets alone at night

Our society sleeps behind locked doors

Lurking beneath the shadow’s surface

Hiding under exterior silence

There exists in every individual

The potential for criminal violence

Crime after crime — conditioned criminality

Timed after time — randomized brutality

Reminds us we must live in fear

As we are held prisoner by the fear of assault

Our freedoms are compromised

As we are held prisoner by the fear of attack

Our freedoms are victimized

A psychopathic killer

A common teenage vandal

Both victims of instincts

They cannot handle

A fearful population rests

On the brink of insanity

An unfortunate aspect of human nature

Crime will exist as long as humanity

Some find they must resort

To predatory ways to survive

Some find they must kill

In order to stay alive
