| Like a rock through a mosque in Jerusalem
|
| A bullet through the head in Vietnam
|
| A cannon through the wall at Antietam
|
| Or the army through the people in Tiananmen
|
| Well our history is rife (that's right)
|
| With examples of our disregard for human life
|
| So we imitate what we see (TV)
|
| And we follow this culture
|
| Right down to our knees
|
| And I don’t see it getting any better today
|
| Until we replace our priorities over our pay
|
| And the only world that we ever seem to know
|
| Is based on aquaintances and TV shows
|
| Another degredation, self revelation
|
| Rocks through the veil of one antoher liberation
|
| Response… to action
|
| Trigger… synapses
|
| Conditioned… reaction
|
| Is this what you call free?
