Lyrics
I see the cries of many drowned by the sound of one voice
I see the freedom of us all chained by the illusion of choice
I see the hopes of the hopeless seek salvation in celebrity
I see prisoners of conscience prisoners of necessity
I see the feasting of the glutton dressed up like creativity
I see the eyes of the hungry watching the starving on TV
I see barefoot children making shoes for you and me
I see unworthy politicians profit from hostility
I see heroes created, heroes cremated, heroes make their own destiny
I see the hands of the helpless raised in suppliency
I see the sins of a generation excused by one single apology
I see faith and salvation confused with hypocrisy
I see church bells singing, alarm bells ringing, chimimg out in unity
I see the houses of the holy burning down their own effigies
I see the hounds of the hunters biting the hands that feed
I see the sound of laughter taken too seriously
I see a vision of the future and the ghosts of history
I believe it's true, you believe it too,
So what the hell are we going to do?
