Assassin lyrics

War is overdue
The time has come for you
To shoot your leaders down
Join forces underground

Lose control
Increasing pace
Warped and bewitched
Time to erase
Whatever they say
These people are torn
Wild and bereft
Assassin is born (yeah)

(aim shoot kill
your leaders)

Oppose and disagree
Destroy Demonocracy

Lose control
increasing pace
Warped and bewitched
Time to erase
Whatever they say
These people are torn
Wild and bereft
Assassin is born (yeah)

    i heard the knight rider theme and i know why you would think that they sound similar. if you're looking for skmeone to blame about sounding a lot like that song, it woul gave to be System of a Down. listen closely to the song I-E-A-I-A-I-O. it is exactly the same. i just realized that.

    Its the leaders that bring the chaos not the muse.

    I agree with the DemonCracy thing but at the beginning there's even a scary thing still: 'Shoot your leaders down'. Sounds a bit chaotic and anarchic to me. I love Muse, anyway.

    So what the hell does Matt and the gang have against democracy? Fuck that! Democracy rules! Tried and True. I really hope they aren't just trying to pull the political strings to sell records.

    what? no its DEMONocracy...its a playing on words, i think its about a society that claims to be democratic but clearly isn't

    and it doesn't work brilliantly either, i mean, it has its flaws like everything.

    I must say, this is one of my fav songs on the albums, turning it up is scary. I could hear it ears for 12 hours...whoops

    Has anyone else noticed the similarities with Knight Rider Theme (KITT and D. Hasselhoff, the 80s) and this song? Just listen and compare.

  • Dahli 0 points

    This is such an angry song, I love it.
    I also needed to change a few things for this song.
    (also please take out the "in" in 'in increasing pain', sorry I left that out.)

    Damn straight, Johan!

    and... the lyrics say "demonocracy", not "democracy"...

  • Johan 0 points

    Listen to the whole album and realize that they're criticizing politicians, not democracy.

    "How can we win when fools can be kings?" from Knights of Cydonia summarizes the album really well.

  • Nina 0 points

    This song gives me the chills.
    It makes me smile. : )

  • Damo 0 points

    This song resonates the concept of the album in war and hatred ect. its very hard and fast paced,rolls through the beats and has great paced drumming and overlapping singing which develops throughout the song another emotional passionate song from the muse
