    2022, a new European order
    Robot guards patrolling the border
    Cybernetic dogs are getting closer and closer
    Armored cars and immigration officers

    that asian dub foundation song is getting more and more accurate...

      Whoa, I honestly had no idea what the lyrics to Fortress Europe were beyond, "Keeping banging on the walls...of FOR-TRESS EUROPE!" because that's probably all I could make out while playing Need for Speed: Underground as a kid.

      We got a right, know the situation
      We're the children of globalization
      No borders, only true connection
      Light the fuse of the insurrection
      This generation has no nation
      Grass roots pressure the only solution
      We're sitting tight
      'Cause asylum is a right

      [...]

      They got a right, listen not to the scaremonger
      Who doesn't run when they're feel the hunger
      From where to what to when to here to there
      People caught up in red tape nightmare

      Break out of the detention centers
      Cut the wires and tear up the vouchers
      People get ready it's time to wake up
      Tear down the walls of Fortress Europe

        yeah, song's from 2003 but it could be from pretty much any time...
