From the Ashes

God you must be kidding me, thought this was supposed to be
The home of the brave and the free for you and me
but now there's something wrong - shit's been going on too long.
It's never gonna change, there's no way i say.
What's the CIA and the NRA?
They're all the same - just the names are changed.
Fuck - there's no excuse - any way you lose.
It's all a joke in the good old USA.
All we need is more factories pumping filth into the sky.
Corporate greed and perverted priests, it's the story of our lives.
And apathy's the national disease and there is no end in sight.
God save the USA - blame the president and say your prayers tonight.
The irony of liberty is no one here is truly free
When elections are stolen bij the G.O.P.
So watch the nightly news - find out how you are getting screwed.
What you gonna do? - there's no use i say
Fuck the industry - the aristocracy
Fuck they're all the same - just the names are changed.
Fuck ther's no excuse, any way you lose.
It's all a joke in the good old USA.
Government hypocricy -American Idolatry - Corporate philosophy.
Nightly news of tragedies - Whre no one cares what's right or wrong
Our heroes now are all long gone - The freedoms that we all abuse
The obituaries front page news

My day is here
everything in mind is clear
never going back to a world thats changed
never going back-never fade away
well everythings broke
got to get back to a place I know
never going back to a world thats changed
never going back-never fade away
never fade away

Waiting!
he'll report you to wait
try to get home
try to find a way inside

Waiting!
looking for another way
try to get home
try to find a way inside
Waiting!

Well, everythings changed
the life I know is been rearranged
can't wait to make this a memory
remembering what can never be
yesterday's gone
today's the only thing I can count on
the future is the only hope for me
and until then i'll always be-
i'll always be...

Waiting!
he'll report you to wait
try to get home
try to find a way inside

Waiting!
looking for another way
try to get home
try to find a way inside
couldn't make it out this time
Waiting!

I'm always stuck just waiting there
waiting for some kind of sign or message
waiting for the moment when i can find to get to take control
Control of myself, Control of my future,
but nothing changes, it's all the same
everyday i wake up hoping for a new chance,
a new beginning
a something or someone to get me out of here
i was meant to just kill my life
i'll just keep hoping but till then i'll always be...

Waiting!
he'll report you to wait
try to get home
try to find a way inside

Waiting!
looking for another way
try to get home
try to find a way inside

Waiting!
he'll report you to wait
try to get home
try to find a way inside
couldn't make it out this time
Waiting!

Asleep at the wheel
You didn't know till it's too late
'Til now you're blinded by the things you could not see
The land of the free is no safe haven now
Because you don't want to try - you don't want to die
You've got everything in life but the answer's why
You don't really know how it's going to be
So pretend it'll be O.K.

Look who you are - just a member of society
In a tragic comedy - pretending it will be O.K.
Look who you are - just a particle of history
Another faceless casualty - pretending it will be O.K.

A rat in a cage accept the things you can't deny
Do you - recognize the lie you have become - like everyone
You're afraid to face the truth
And now you can't get away - your fortune or fate and the answers that you seek always slip away
You don't really care - you don't have a prayer
Your escape will be your grave

Look who you are - just a member of society
In a tragic comedy - pretending it will be O.K.
Look who you are - just a particle of history
Another faceless casualty - pretending it will be O.K.

So you just give up - year you just give in
You go to sleep and dream at night of the life that might have been
When you've had enough - How much can you take?
Just try to convince yourself everything will be OK
It'll never be OK

woke up to a perfect day no hope in sight but the futures bright ahead
today things will go my way i got to fight - can rest when i am dead
got no time for your explinations give me the frustrations and strained relations
can't wait for what waits for me got to get out and find whats right for me
now i know - i can hear the voices in my head they're telling me what to do next
can't figure it out - i guess we'll see - i know nothing comes for free
no one can say what the future holds and now i know i'v lost control
who knows what waits for me - no hope in sight - the futures bright for me
too long i'v been denied and hypnotized by the lies they've told me
and too long i'v been controlled i'v got to know what it feels like to be free
of the grasp of their expectations - their tribulations - no reservations
can't wait for what waits for me to get out and find whats right for me.
and still you hear them - you loose control - you can't escape them listen and you'll know.
