John Preston isn't here
But I like to watch this film with a beer
Equilibrium is a classic
Bale thinks it's far from fantastic
Bean wasn't in it long but his presence was felt
What happens when you take emotions away?
Have a political leader keeping everyone at bay?
A drone society
It's actually how we are living day to day
They don't want people speaking out
I see it clearly
Will true colours be shown?
I think, nearly
The real prison is in the mind
Think outside the box instead of stumbling blind
No books to read
Artwork soon to be burned
It takes willpower to think on this level
I would never sell my soul to the Devil
Knowledge is needed to succeed
All I see is capitalism and greed
Gun kata was stolen by John Wick
Which way are you headed?
You better think quick
Indoctrination on every news station
The blood will run red
Peel off the window sheet
The sky is blue above our head
After all the tears have been shed
What colour will your heart turn before you lie dead

Brilliant!
(Equilibrium, a foreshadowing
depiction of modernity's impending
1984
more telling, than Orwell's own...)
'Equilibrium Prison'
'Indoctrination on every news station'
'No books to read

Thanks, appreciate it (:
