Anthem |
A nation stands with heart in hand |
To sing their anthem proudly |
Voices raised to sing their praise |
Of their hollow country |
All this talk of freedom |
And some talk of liberty |
From your plastic podium |
You try and convince me |
I can’t fall anymore |
For some silver-tongued song |
Your freedom isn’t free |
So let me say what freedom means to |
I can’t see red, white, and blue waving in the air |
I don’t hear the bombs bursting and I don’t even care |
I’m sorry for my lack of faith |
I’m not the greatest patriot |
If this is all their is to freedom I don’t want it |
I can’t fall anymore |
For some silver-tongued song |
Your freedom isn’t free |
So let me say what freedom means to |
Pushing us a drug that you call freedom and democracy |
Promise us that selfishness is the means for happiness |
I burned that bridge so long ago that I can hardly see |
Anything but solace in what freedom means to me |
I can’t fall anymore |
For some silver-tongued song |
Freedom isn’t free |
So let me say what freedom means to |
It cannot mean to serve ourselves |
That doesn’t mean a thing |
It doesn’t mean to give the license |
To seek ourselves in anything |
That would be slavery to ourselves it isn’t free |
Jesus Christ, the only thing that freedom means to me |
