There was a moment when we thought hope could prevail
Blinding our thoughts, stripped bare and blanketed by fear
We're all the lost, choking on the cost of everything they fed
Laying at the feet of the puppeteers...who would rather see us dead
They keep us on a rope
Just long enough to choke
Guarded by dogs and drones
Survey and smash our (fucking) hopes
For every moment we remain divided,
Smiling through our hatred - is just death and dying
For every moment we remain divided
How will we stand? How can we stand?
Kept awake glued to the screens that take away our souls
Eat from plates that keep us in a box, now the store is closed - This is how this story goes
In a land of machines - we lose our means
LET GO!
I want to feel every drop of rain
I want to know what love means
I want to see the sun and be free
I want to be a fucking human being
I want to be free
