Critical Mass

The man out there’s got a hold on the crowd

He must be right ‘cause he’s talking too loud

There’s no need for alarm

He’s got that magical charm

He’s not the flood, he’s only riding the wave

But the dam will burst, leaving nobody safe

If you want to survive

Better run for your life

The man up there knows what you want to hear

Selling his gods by exploiting your fear

By the time he is gone

The damage is done

Lightning strikes when he opens his mouth

Nobody gets what he’s talking about

It’s an educated guess

For the critical mass

Just let me live my dream

Make me believe that everything will be allright

That love will reign supreme

Make me believe we’ll finally see the light

The man down there has a way with words

They carry no weight but so easily hurt

The promise he makes

Is the promise he breaks

It’s all for one and one for all

But who’s gonna rise and who’s gonna fall

That’s an educated guess

For the critical mass

  

Just let me live my dream

Make me believe that everything will be allright

That love will reign supreme

Make me believe we’ll finally see the light

There’s colored information

At the root of this divide

Lack of communication

Paints a world in black and white

There’s no easy solution

Your west maybe my east

But a velvet revolution

Won’t satisfy the beast

The man in here never takes a side

He comes and goes like a thief in the night

And makes a random guess

To reach that critical mass

Just let me live my dream

Make me believe that everything will be allright

That love will reign supreme

Make me believe we’ll finally see the light

Why don’t we live our dream

And believe that everything will be allright

That love will reign supreme

And believe we’ll finally see the light
