lyrics

It seems so far away, and we still live in these times so frail.
We gathered round to watch the flames burn away.
Who we were, changed that day.
Who said that blood was the path to glory?
A tale told, but a different story.
A vision dimmed by the need for revenge, an endless fight will never see its end.
These aren't like the days of old, our lives through your lies are told.
When our side of the war all depends on what we see through a camera lens.
Don't believe all that you see, don't be a victim of your own honesty.
Never the victim.
You fight the fight of a pacifist,
When the world is ruled with an iron fist.
Suppressing those with heart
we'll never fall apart
Just keep your mouth shut, I'll keep my mouth fucking shut.
These aren't like the days of old, our lives through your lies are told.
When our side of the war all depends on what we see through a camera lens.
Don't believe all that you see, don't be a victim of your honesty
Do you still believe? Are you still deceived
If you still believe, then you're still deceived.
