Lyrics I Know - Good Shoes

I Know

How can one be equal and another just be cast aside
How can you be so certain what you believe is the truth
And that what I believe in is not right
To be raised with religion is to be brainwashed from the very start
But then an atheist preaching atheism
Is just as bad as wholeheartedly believing in God
I know, oh no
It starts again
How can someone so intelligent believe
Something so ludicrous
Just because you were taught something
When you were younger
Doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the truth
You should learn to protest and learn to question everything you’re told
I think that if there’s a day of judgement then our leaders will be first
against the wall
I know, oh no
It’s the moronic nature of humans in a group
I think, these are the dark ages and this is the truth
When they look back and they cast their eye they’ll say
These were the dark ages and they could have tried
It’s the moronic nature of humans in a group
I think these are the dark ages and this is the truth
When they look back and they cast their eye
They’ll say these were the dark ages and they could have done so much more if
they’d tried
I think we’re past the point where we can hope for any
Kind of return
I think we’ve screwed ourselves and future generations over on only the flip of
a coin
You’re turning your cheek
You’re averting your eyes
I don’t think that there’ll be future generations to see things with hindsight
The more I want the less I need
