Broke into the silence with a scream of many tongues
Had the rest sit silent so they wouldn't hafta run
Taking things in stride was never my strong suit
No way to predict there'd be such hated for it oh yeah

Money wasn't helping anyone keep on breathing
The rivers ran with slime the kitchen was deserted
Places that were sacred had long ago been burned
There was no act of mercy we had no feel for shame oh yeah

The only ones who felt were the ones who hadn't aged
But age was not a teacher it had choked on its own lies
The pulpit was the shrine to the death of all that shone
Making this a battle ground was everybody's job oh yeah

To bring the people down took more than they thought
The good just wouldn't yield so they're trampled underfoot
The louder they called out the further they were pushed
Into the furnace of the damned that spewed the venom hate oh yeah

Lunch was served at midday for the ones who guard the gate
The total lack of confidence required no restraint
The bunting on the stage was torn the speech laid on the ground
The people who had gathered listened to the bloated clown oh yeah

The afterthought was funny but there was no one left to laugh
The comics were the serious ones the jokes were all in vain
Turning to the fakery that built the nasty game
Took all the time they had no one was to blame oh yeah

The poets lie the singers cry the painters fade away
Nothing touches anyone unless they want to pay
The long night passed without a single shot
And it was never certain if they won or not oh yeah

They had no way to tell which was the better plan
So it was just decided to leave it for another time
Thoughts and prayers were sent by all
Ya they showed they had such real concern oh yeah

Lucky no one pointed out that people never learn
With all this time and money spent on better ways to kill
You need to know which wall is real and which you just believe
One will break you when you hit it the other is just not there oh yeah

Too many times to the well will dry it up you see
You can't drink your hopes and dreams even if they're free
Take a look at all the lessons history has to teach
And then tell me what it is you think that you can reach oh yeah
