Echelon Lyrics - Singles - Cage

[Music: Eric Horton / Dave Garcia] 

[Lyrics: Sean Peck] 

Someone's listening to everything we say. 

Nothing gets by them 

Our hands are bound, they take the sounds and powerplay 

We can't untie them 

A web of networks covering us globally. 

Unholy alliance 

Echelon was started for our own security. 

We just don't but it 

Capture the words that you say. 

Filtering dictionaries 

Nowhere to run nowhere to hide, how will we ever escape? 

Our lives they violate 

Big brother hearing what you say, encompassing array 

There's nowhere anyone can hide secrets or lies 

When they scan you with their prying eyes, your words are analyzed 

You never really know just 

When they're listening in 

Victim of a system we unknowingly play, how will it go? 

What if there is something they don't want you to say, just when will they know ? 

Sprawling operations intercepting our minds and reading our screens. 

Appalling indignations they're invading our lives, 

Oh what does it mean? 

Satellites are beaming information rays defying description 

Telecommunication it never will be freed from their encryption 

Capture the words that you say. 

Filtering dictionaries 

Nowhere to run nowhere to hide, how will we ever escape? 

Our lives they violate 

Big brother hearing what you say, encompassing array 

There's nowhere anyone can hide secrets or lies 

When they scan you with their prying eyes, your words are analyzed 

You never really know just 

When they're listening in
