In Harm's Way
Your democracy has become
A tattered vision of truth,
Corporate sponsorship,
Rapin' & ruling the land,
Do you think what you say
Will make it any better,
It's been this way two hundred years,
Will stay this way forever!
You made promises of health
Care still my teeth rot in my head.
You once seemed so concerned
Now you left us all for dead.
The unemployed, the uninsured,
The homeless in the street,
We're the ones that put you there,
Buddy you've got promises to keep.
We won't survive,
This road to power led by all your kings.
It's time to wake up and take back
What you have lost.
And when it all falls from this malady
Spread from within, like it followed wrong
It's happened once before,
My friend, well here it comes again.
This state we've built
Is a sick reflection of
All that we've become
We've closed our eyes,
Been fed these lies
Do you know what your country's done.
In the land of mad consumers
Free to spend at their own will,
We're losing sight of what it means
To be a free America.
There's something wrong with me
There's something wrong with all of this
There's something wrong with you
There's something wrong with me
I cannot stand by
And watch them as they fuck up my life.
There's something wrong with you
There's something wrong with all of this
There's something wrong with me
There's something wrong with you
Believe these lies,
They'll lead you to a path in harm's way!
