Pardon me, I come from a dysfunctional society,
days of modern atrocities, Genocide on a universal scale.
You hate me, I hate you, yeah, we've heard that all before.
Can't we find a way to get past that before we're all dead on the floor.
Why the fear in your eyes as you look my way,
why the cold stiff shoulder when I try to say,
why the tone in your voice as communication falls astray,
will I ever wake from this or is this the world today?
As stars blind the world's eyes and stripes become the world's bars,
Can the Sons of Europe know any freedoms other than choosing the way we die?
I often talk by talking about myself, for it is the only thing I actually know.
You talk about people you never met doing things
you never saw in places you have never been.
I know what I have done, when and where I did it.
I saw the results, even if it is only
from one perspective - one view
It is at least a view, not a myth or lie
passed generation to generation as examples of reality.
Someone wants to build a wall between mexico and the states.
Others tried that in Berlin, have we forgotten all that hate?
On the edge of despair, it's a thrash or rott situation.
Who really wants to build another racist wall and what are they hiding?
From Mongolia to Berlin, Palistine, why now Mexico?
The Middle East is still up in flames, nulcear threats still common place.
it's no wonder the news gets me depressed, get your censors out of my face.
I don't want to see the news censored,
I don't want to see your social programming.
Wake the F*** Up you sleeping masses,
I want to stop the violence, F***ING STOP and talk.
if it's you kill me or I kill you, we might as well all fry.
there's no reason for this life to exist and we should all end this lie.
You hate me, I hate you, yeah, we've heard that all before.
Can't we find a way to get past that before we're all dead on the floor
if it's you kill me or I kill you
(this is my land/'we can share, it is vast'),
we might as well all fry
(this is my way/'I'll learn yours, you learn mine'),
there's no reason for this life to exist
(this is my life/'together we'll live to grow stronger'),
and we should all end this lie
(this is my say/'I've heard yours, will you hear mine').
You hate me, I hate you, yeah, we've heard that all before.
Can't we find a way to get past that before we're all dead on the floor.
