With all this chaos and confusion
Is this some strange illusion?
Through all of the burning ashes begs the question
Just how long can you stand this recession?
Tearing up from inside out
You leave us all with fists of doubt
Get up! Stand up! Make your sound
Make it heard to all around
(Repeat)
Tabloids, tablet, television tales
The hurt of the thoughtful minds never fails
we won’t follow the shoal, become the sheep
And we’ll draw the curtains from the ones who sleep
Tearing up from inside out
You leave us all with fists of doubt
Get up! Stand up! Make your sound
Make it heard to all around
(Repeat)
Push through the walls
Believe in the love, for how it calls
From rough are diamonds of light
With the weight of the world, it’ll be all right
Politics as always
They didn’t have my vote
You rubbish the ones
who try to keep us afloat
Fabricated headlines to keep you low
Under the watchful eyes of the beady crows
We won’t pay the price of rotten judgment
Because with the times like these,
Who can trust the government?
Tearing up from inside out
You leave us all with fists of doubt
Get up! Stand up! Make your sound
Make it heard to all around
(Repeat)
