Can we go on? can we be strong?
We've got a system you're going to use it
We call it freedom and you are free to choose it
If you're not against it you've got to be for it
Neutral is dangerous and you cannot ignore it
Can we go on forcing our hand?
Can we be strong till others understand?
Can we go on to save our wounded land?
Can we be wrong?
We've got the money we're going to spend it
Peace is our mission we'll murder to defend it
Sooner or later you'll get the picture
We're the creator and you were just created

Devastation is where we're heading if we follow this illusion
Escalation of all the hurting that is borne of our confusion
Unrelenting as we persist in putting everyone beneath us
Never ending until we understand our honesty deceives us
There is still one truth on which we can depend
We've started something we can never end
We know although we try to justify the means
The truth behind the end remains unseen
And while we all assume we all agree
We're giving up the freedom to be free
Disillusion is always possible but we've got propaganda
Mass confusion is always better than the threat of understanding
We'll deceive you we've got so many ways to make you stand behind us
If we need to we'll use them on ourselves to constantly remind us
There is just one lie that we can still defend
We've started something we can never end
