Walk Astray |
Where were you the day they stole our innocence |
And arranged a sacrifice for everyone in town |
Drove all the words yet to be written underground |
To save the money on the kerosene they’d need |
Were you awake or were you sleeping |
Or just too afraid to disagree? |
Well, I don’t wanna sing about freedom anymore |
I wanna see it, I wanna feel it |
I wanna know that it still sits beyond the lies that we’ve been told |
Beyond the wars that keep our families from home |
I know that there’s a way |
Dear God let there be a way |
To change the path we’re on |
And believe in a better day |
Our dreams are their worst nightmares, these songs, a call to arms |
We can dance on the graves that held us, we can change the course of time |
Stand up and fight, save yourself |
Strike, the time is now |
You and me, we are more like sheep |
Forced to march, crippled feet, to the slaughter |
I’ll stand on principle, banner lifted and a fist raised high |
Filthy soul with a patriot heart, dancing rhythms in a world apart |
Stand up and fight, save yourself |
Strike, the time is now |
You and me, we are more like sheep |
Forced to march, crippled feet, to the slaughter |
You and me, we can live like thieves |
On the dreams that we stole from their fears |
Casting pearls before swine, hanging dead on the vine |
Can we strive to be so much more than this |
Casting pearls before swine, hanging dead on the vine |
Can we strive to be so much more than this |
You and me, we are more like sheep |
Forced to march, crippled feet, to the slaughter |
To the slaughter … |
