Listen can you hear it, the sound of a society Where no one ever takes any responsibility Everything's presented as if it were all pre-ordained No one can change anything, no need for someone to explain The politician says the budget was unable to be balanced Justice failed to be observed, mass weapons undetected The environment was unconcerned, the votes were not respected The people failed to notice when their privates were inspected Well i just want to say the opinions in this or any song Don't necessarily represent (my hosts or sponsors) So if you have a problem with this or any other song I just want to say so you don't get it wrong I'm singing this one on my own Imagine if you applied this principle to your own life Think of all the things you could say are out of your control The material has not been learned, the exam failed to be studied for Sleep was not disturbed, my job was not attended Tthe television's full of people killing each other randomly The cinema's aglow with psychos, vampires and the walking dead The army's building robots so it can invade just anyone The well trained assassin says its just a job that must be done (My fellow musicians) It must be wonderful to be a leader (the people were not educated) To have the power to do so much (peace was not pursued) To fix the problems of our time (poverty was unaffected) Pass the profits all around (no crimes were ever proven) What if you make it personal, say: my addiction was predestined My career failed to happen, my life was never lived Wouldn't it be great if we could simply be restarted So everything could be repaired with no effort from ourselves (My friends and family)
