lyrics

this is the world we’re living in
where money’s put above our needs
infested with our selfish ways
refuse to care, refuse to give

we’re stranded in hypocrisy
we’re promised hope, wealth, and a better life
but they repeat the same mistakes
we’ll never learn, we’ll never learn

war wages on, no end
in a society of liars, beggars, cheats, and fools
will you join them or will you rise above their selfish rule?

is somebody there
to finally stop this madness
there’s nowhere to run, there’s nowhere to hide
is somebody there
to finally stop this madness
there’s nowhere to run, there’s nowhere to hide
(we have to find a way)

i'd like to think we're moving on
but all the cries for help give me second thoughts
they echo through the empty hearts of the corrupt
to be ignored, to be dismissed
fixated on "what matters most"
to only worry about themselves
it makes me sick, this is what we've come to
when will we learn, when will we learn?

war wages on, no end
in a society of liars, beggars, cheats, and fools
will you join them or will you rise above their selfish rule?

is somebody there
to finally stop this madness
there’s nowhere to run, there’s nowhere to hide
is somebody there
to finally stop this madness
there’s nowhere to run, there’s nowhere to hide

we have the strength to carry on
we’ll rise from the ashes
we have the strength to carry on
we’ll rise from the ashes
oh!
