Somebody's selling a new religion
Somebody's selling a lie
Somebody wants all the strife and division
That's driving us out of our minds

They're telling the world not trust their own eyes
They're telling the people they're wrong
They're keeping the truth for their power and gain
And taking whatever we've got

And some of you eat all the lies you've been fed
Some of you just go along
Training acceptance inside of your head
To give them whatever they want

You're leaving your brothers and sisters behind
You're told it's the best thing to do
You're shutting out friends 'cause you're told that's what's right
Now they win because all of us lose

And it's so sad
Watching these times as they change
And it's so bad
The battle's been violent and strange
As they lock us indoors
In a prison of this silent war

Now someone is trying to sell you the cure
The same one who made the disease
And they'll try to convince you and make you feel sure
But hey, there ain't no guarantees

They covered your mouth and they've tied back your hands
They did it to all of the kids
And nobody knows all the damage that's done
And won't ask until the master permits
And it's so sad
Watching these times as they change
And it's so bad
The battle's been violent and strange
We all shout behind doors
In a prison of this silent war

So take back your freedom
And fight for your life
Stand up before it's all gone
Take back your freedom
And fight for your life
Stand up before it's all gone

'Cause it's so sad
Watching these times as they change
And it's so bad
The battle's been violent and strange
We can't let them take more
We can't let them win this silent war

So take back what is yours
Do not let them win this silent war
