Lyrics

    1
    Breathe us in
    Slowly
    Slowly
    
    2
    Persuasion
    Coercion
    Submission
    Assimilation
    
    3
    Welcome to your new point of view
    We have disappeared into you
    
    4
    Everything you do
    Everywhere you go
    Anything we want
    Anything
    
    5
    Now it's all just a matter of time

Sections 1, 2, and 4 are clearly audible in the song. Section 3 and 5 may not have made it onto the final recording.

Theories

The song tells the assimilation of people into believing and following the government of Year Zero. They are now part of the the "Greater Good"
