Touched by the hands that have murdered a million
|
Unarmed patrons' fists raised
|
They don't wanna listen to the bullshit being fed to them spoonful at a time
|
When death can cost more than a quarter, nickel, and a dime
|
Hand's up, questions are raised
|
Another first-thing-in-the-morning-bombing
|
These days they say there's so much to live for, I'm really not sure
|
With all the shit that's going on, we're told to keep our heads up
|
|
What's next? One more mass suicide?
|
The context of it, we don't even have the time
|
Some say that we've over analyzed it
|
But the real reason people are effected by it is the neglect on some's behalf
|
Who are ruining it for the rest of us that just wanna see this end
|
The hands of time can't be expected to fix this
|
Who would've thought it would've come to this?
|
|
Wake up to this world
|
It's gonna be too late, it's gonna be too late
|
Wake up
|
When the war is over there's nowhere to go
|
|
Firing down the line, sharpshooter in the corner
|
The door won't open, with a blast it's blown wide open
|
A bullet in the head, a factory worker is dead
|
It'll make the headline news, but they'll keep beating up on you
|
Told to go away, tightrope walking everyday just to be safe
|
I've gotta say I haven't got all day
|
And it's so horrible that your stomach's so full
|
There is a way out, but it's an ugly road
|
|
Wake up to this world
|
It's gonna be too late, it's gonna be too late
|
Wake up
|
When the war is over there's nowhere to go
|
Wake up to this world
|
It's gonna be too late, it's gonna be too late
|
Wake up
|
|
When the war is over, we'll have to start all over
|
When the war is over, there's no home or shelter
|
We're gonna start all over
|
|
Wake up to this world
|
Oh, wake up
|
Wake up
|
Just wake up to this world
|
