Lyrics

And we're at it again
I turn around, another fucking war, man
I don't know where to begin, but I'll start with the radical leaders
Their steps, we're following
Running, don't go back and fight, too many you'll lose
As they thank the Lord, the blind can't see
Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease, whoa
But it wasn't a sin
A sorry life judging every action
And as they're feeding your mind with this shit
You forget how to speak, how to ask all the questions
The business at hand tonight, make the people choose
If they had it their way, I'd burn in Hell
And your future's a fucking disaster, can't you see?
Don't give them all the power
When your future's in desperate trouble, baby
As they thank the Lord, the blind can't see
Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease, whoa
I'd run away tonight with my mind still intact
You gotta make it alright
Easier said than done with no place to hide
And having no place to
Running away from condition
I see you but you're running away from
Your scared seductive system
Most would claim I live a lie (I live a lie)
When pointing out it's easy to predict these things (predict these things)
Every color has its side (I have a side)
They live together, vote and most embrace the same dark times
Please help us, please save us
Of course, they have control, we're all the same
Up on the cross, crucified their problem
Drove the nail and let him rot
Family and friends, it won't matter in the end
I'm sure they'll understand
Now look at the world and see how the humans bleed
As I sit up here and wonder about
How you sold your mind, body and soul
Looking at the fields so green, I know this sounds obscene
I see you're living for tomorrow
But decisions you have made will leave you empty
As they thank the Lord, the blind can't see
Like a plague fed to the brain, deadly disease, woah
I'd run away tonight with my mind still intact
You gotta make it alright
Easier said than done with no place to hide
And having no place to (run)
You have fallen asleep in denial
Look at the way we're dying one by one
How it ends, I'll never know
Just live your life blind like me
