| can you give me a reason why you shone for a season | |
| then you turned to deceiving (i don't believe that it's right) | |
| you pretend you can hear us but you won't come near us | |
| now it's all got serious (i don't believe that it's right) | |
| we thought you'd do your best for future generations | |
| but all you left was a mounting debt (i don't believe that it's right) | |
| we thought your peace could flow like water through the nations | |
| but you shut down the fountainhead (i don't believe that it's right) | |
| can you give an account now as the truth's coming out now | |
| it's the end of the countdown (i don't believe that it's right) | |
| now we've lost all our patience with your forced liquidation | |
| of our land of our nation (i don't believe that it's right) | |
| we thought you'd right the wrongs that others brought upon us | |
| but you sold off our right to choose (i don't believe that it's right) | |
| we thought you'd fight for us but you just fought among us | |
| and you sold off your servitude (i don't believe that it's right) | |
| no more tries and no more chances | |
| no more lies to pass as answers | |
| no more smiles and false relations | |
| no more world indoctrination | |
| sorry for being angry sorry for being numb | |
| sorry for all the dreaming i really should have done | |
| i thought that i was blameless i thought that i was safe | |
| i thought that a happy ending would happen anyway | |
| i can't believe we never noticed | |
| i can't believe it took so long | |
| for us to turn around the future | |
| by standing up for what we all believed in all along | |
| it was there right before our eyes we were blind not to realise | |
| in the rush to be globalised we signed away our freedom | |
| we forgot how to criticise we were scared to be demonised | |
| as the truth was neutralised we lost the art of reason | |
| shallow the crusader and shallow their crusade | |
| but deep the ideology that brings them into play | |
| political correctness a foil for our minds | |
| a false exoneration to cover up the crimes | |
| i can't believe we never noticed | |
| i can't believe it took so long | |
| for us to turn around the future | |
| by standing up for what we all believed in all along | |
| it was there right before our eyes we were blind not to realise | |
| in the rush to be globalised we signed away our freedom | |
