What sense does it make
to listen to me
I dont say what I mean
I dont mean what I do
Each chance that I waste
defines the line
the doubts that I lay
soon seem to be truth
But the truth awaits
to be recognized
believes it can be found
Forced away in defensive times
and forgotten from the toll
There's something bigger
I'm trying to see
the lives that we run
are run into the ground
They're planted there
a seed of doubt
ambition abandoned
abolished away
So the children who play
are on the clock
about to be too old
it's naive to think they'll figure it out
before they will be sold
What sense does it make
to listen to me
there's wars to be won
the one for them all
How can I live
perchance to dream
when the money we make
funds killing machines
So the children we raise
can consume the lies
we pass down from our plate
The world is yours can you visualize
all you'll do with it
We're forced away
The world was big
not big enough
exhausted all our wonder
The world was big
not big enough
for weary minds to wander
Descendants of the conquerers
in a world that cant be won
theres nothing left to do for us
but we cant just sit around
So we're forced away
But it makes a difference to us
keep on looking
to fight for meaning
we're not lost
It makes a difference
so kill and kill and kill
it makes a difference to say free
but what does it mean
You've been forced away
to search for work
to search for love
to search for yourself
