The Art Of Reason Lyrics - Threshold

Can you give me a reason why you shone for a season 

Then you turned to deceiving (i don't believe that it's right) 

You pretend you can hear us but you won't come near us 

Now it's all got serious (i don't believe that it's right) 

We thought you'd do your best for future generations 

But all you left was a mounting debt (i don't believe that it's right) 

We thought your peace could flow like water through the nations 

But you shut down the fountainhead (i don't believe that it's right) 

Can you give an account now as the truth's coming out now 

It's the end of the countdown (i don't believe that it's right) 

Now we've lost all our patience with your forced liquidation 

Of our land of our nation (i don't believe that it's right) 

We thought you'd right the wrongs that others brought upon us 

But you sold off our right to choose (i don't believe that it's right) 

We thought you'd fight for us but you just fought among us 

And you sold off your servitude (i don't believe that it's right)

No more tries and no more chances 

No more lies to pass as answers 

No more smiles and false relations 

No more world indoctrination 

Sorry for being angry sorry for being numb 

Sorry for all the dreaming I really should have done 

I thought that I was blameless I thought that I was safe 

I thought that a happy ending would happen anyway 

I can't believe we never noticed 

I can't believe it took so long 

For us to turn around the future 

By standing up for what we all believed in all along 

It was there right before our eyes we were blind not to realise 

In the rush to be globalised we signed away our freedom 

We forgot how to criticise we were scared to be demonised 

As the truth was neutralised we lost the art of reason 

Photos 

Shallow the crusader and shallow their crusade 

But deep the ideology that brings them into play 

Political correctness a foil for our minds 

A false exoneration to cover up the crimes 

I can't believe we never noticed 

I can't believe it took so long 

For us to turn around the future 

By standing up for what we all believed in all along 

It was there right before our eyes we were blind not to realise 

In the rush to be globalised we signed away our freedom 

We forgot how to criticise we were scared to be demonised 

As the truth was neutralised we lost the art of reason
