Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The dreams of the West
Are a ghost ship
We're taught to hang on to
With false idle fictions
And all that stands
Between me and you
[Verse 2]
Men of peace just said
The state of the world is war
No we won't be led
No business we're dying for
[Verse 3]
The state of the world is
The state of the world is
[Verse 4]
Nightmares of the West
You're a soldier
And you just wanna live to see home
But there's war in our country too
And blind billionaires
Between me and you
[Verse 5]
Let the ship burn
We're the ocean
In every shade, in every color
Let the ship burn
We're the ocean
The tide is rising over
[Verse 6]
Our lives like crests
On the waves
We are
The right now
In action
The present
We break upon the bow
[Verse 7]
Men of peace just said
The state of the world is war
(The state of the world is war)
No we won't be led
No business we're dying for
(No business we're dying for)
