New World

 

This is the breakedown.

ha!

try to follow.

 

inside I’m crying, dying to ask why

We’re working for nothng from 9 to 5

I can feel the exhaustion wearing on me

can’t face the fact that -

I am not free

 

freedom is a lie we learned to believe

like a book with no pages we pretend to read

you envy me - let me tell you where I came from

I ran like hell through my imaganation

just to get away from what i did not understand

like how a boy becomes a coward and calls himself a men

and everyone around him pats him on the back

happily obvious ignoring all the facts

knick knack paddi whack give a dog a bone

sit, stay, roll over, run away from home

this is what we teach to the demons we create

avoid your inner conscience,

and hide from your mistakes

then lie awake hunted by your messed up thoughts

contemplating actions afraid of getting caught

 

this is how we’re waiting on the edge

for the problems that haven’t happened yet

paranoia is crawling into our head because

this is how we’re waiting on the edge

 

I wonder why we’re still falling for the same old tricks

it seems like we’re all broken and need to be fixed

were like robots aboarding the economy that failing anyway

and won’t let us be who we wanna be

its sickening a world on the go

I need a triple tall hot latte and a blueberry scone

and for lunch, I’ll take number 5

with a large diet coke

and an extra side of fries

and you can feed me lies

I’ll eat them up to

at night I pray to god and ask him what to do

 

this is how wer’e wating on the edge

for the problems that haven’t happened yet

paranoia is crawling into our head because

this is how we’re waiting on te edge

 

and millions of children, dying of hunger

we cant see the lightning, cant hear the thunder

we are going under

if things don’t change soon

the world will be dead by tomorrow at noon

raped of her glory

raped of her life

raped like the husbands rape their wives

and the wives have also lost their minds

drowning their kids

and feeding them lies

 

all in favor of a new world say I

all in favor say I

all in favor of a new world say I

all in favor say I, aye

 

I don’t wanna sit and wait for shit to hit the fan

but you can, if you want

with the family you brought

to the land of all promises

where all you ever wanted was a chance to take a stand

against the world that took your confidence

because you have been on it since

the day you turned ten

and your dad said you have to earn your money to spend

thats what you did - you became part of the system

working to earn a respect of old rich men.

shining their shoes, and pressing their pants

playing their games and dancing their dance

basically home to get a chance -

a chance to get notice, to maybe advance

but, let me let you in on a little secret -

you can package your pride, and tell theme to keep it

because you dont need them. they need you caus’ you feed them

you do the work while they sit tall cause you are lucky you have a job at all

right?

 

this is how we’re waiting on the edge

for the problems that haven’t happened yet

paranoia is crawling into our head because

this is how we’re waiting on the edge

 

so one more time everybody, alright.

 

this is how we’re waiting on the edge

for the problems that haven’t happened yet

paranoia is crawling into our head because

this is how we’re waiting on the edge

 

here we go

 

all in favor of a new world say I

all in favor say I

all in favor of a new world say I

all in favor say I, aye

(mani “I” and “say I” in backgrond.)
