Lyrics:
The tide is rising now the lines are getting hard to see
They've all been washed away along with all of your clarity
And now you can't remember which side of the line you were on...
Whatever happened to when hard work brought prosperity?
Foundations laid on mass deceit and insincerity
America is waking up, we've been asleep too long!...
Are we who they say we are?
A million faces tell the story of their "work in progress"
Empty promises that lead to more and more of the same!
Campaigns based on disregard
The empty spaces grow and grow as the standards regress
Keep a nation in the dark, someone's bound to start a flame!
HEY!!
HEY!!
(Short instrumental solo)
Can't make sense of the mess that's its front of me
Am I the enemy or just their property?
Wanna feel like nothings stopping me; no fear, see clear, peace or mutiny!
Watching people as they shout their convictions
Don't know if its fact or fiction
Pick a side to stand: to the left, to the right
There's a circle in the middle and they're not inside it
Are we who they say we are?
A million faces tell the story of their "work in progress"
Empty promises that lead to more and more of the same.
Campaigns based on disregard
The empty spaces grow and grow as the standards regress
Keep a nation in the dark, someone's bound to start a flame!!
HEY!!!
HEY!!!
(Music instrumental)
The tide is rising now the lines are getting hard to see
They've all been washed away along with all of your clarity
And now you can't remember which side of the line you were on....
Whatever happened to when hard work brought prosperity?
Foundations laid on mass deceit and insincerity
America is waking up, we've been asleep too long
Are we who they say we are?
A million faces tell the story of their "work in progress"
Empty promises that lead to more and more of the same
Campaigns based on disregard
The empty spaces grow and grow as the standards regress
Keep a nation in the dark, someone's bound to start a flame!!!!
HEY!!!!!
HEY!!!!!
