lyrics

Open up your eyes
Where's everything you wanted?
Open up your mind
Your dreams have been haunted
Prescribed by the times
Undefined and unwanted

Defy and defend
Find joy in the end

A point of view that's nothing new, overlooked and unneeded
The greedy one's have had their run and now have succeeded
In creating frustration, embarrassing our nation
Your false sense of self is eradication
Be sure your heart's in the right place
Be sure mistakes will be made
Be sure it's all loss, little gain
it's all fun and games until someone gets hurt

Here's another verse for the faithful departed
The broken hearts who quit far before they even started
The ones without a choice, sure to be outsmarted
Or murdered with no voice, is the whole world retarded?
And what about the youth raised in this deception?
Conceited and convinced that they're some sort of exception
Extinction, no distinction, repression, no expression
We're waiting here patiently, suppressing the lesson

Be sure your heart's in the right place
Be sure mistakes will be made
Be sure it's all loss, little gain
It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt
