About
"Survivalism" is the third track on the 2007 release Year Zero.
Survivalism is the belief that one must be prepared to survive a major catastrophe by stocking up on food and weapons.
A survivalist therefore is a person who anticipates and prepares for a future disruption in local, regional or worldwide social or political order. Survivalists often prepare for this anticipated disruption by learning skills (e.g., emergency medical training), stockpiling food and water, or building structures that will help them to survive (e.g., an underground shelter).

SPOILERS BEGIN
A wall of surveillance monitors details the activities of several people. A group of rebels is creating stencils and spray-painting the "Art Is Resistance" logo on walls. In an apartment, a pair of gay lovers share an intimate moment. In another dwelling, a young woman stands topless at her mirror doing her hair and applying make-up. Elsewhere someone is high on drugs, while a couple just sits on their couch in their home. Seen on several monitors is Nine Inch Nails playing the song in what is assumed to be their practice space. Intercut with these scenes is footage of armed soldiers moving in on one of the buildings and one of the places in the video.
At the end of the video the people in the other monitors seem to respond to an ado in one of the spaces seen on the monitor wall. The space where NIN was playing seems abandoned and at the very end a body is seen being dragged around a corner, leaving a trail of blood. We can imply what became of NIN
END SPOLIERS
Lyrics
I should have listened to her So hard to keep control We kept on eating but Our bloated belly's still not full She gave us all she had but We went and took some more Can't seem to shut her legs Our mother nature is a whore [CHORUS:] I got my propaganda I got revisionism I got my violence In high-def ultra-realism All a part of this great nation I got my fist I got my plan I got survivalism Hypnotic sound of siren Echoing through the street The cocking of the rifles The marching of the feet You see your world on fire Don't try to act surprised We did just what you told us Lost our faith along the way and found ourselves believing your lies [CHORUS] [cut-up speech] All bruised and broken, bleeding She asked to take my hand I turned, just keep on walking But you'd do the same thing under circumstance I'm sure you'll understand [CHORUS] [guitar solo] You've got your pacifism, I've got survivalism (x10)
