Has the equation of being replaced the sorrow singing in silence?
Have the rules of the house only served to create more violence?
And aren’t you tired of struggling to pay for things we all deserve?

Have you insulated the darkness that neighbours your heart well enough to keep it from freezing?
Have the things in this world designed to protect only served to keep you from breathing?
And do you wonder who those bullies in blue protect and serve?

And sometimes I believe that our country’s a sinking ship.
We will make like the rats, we will sink or will we swim.
And if we freeze in the waters we'll learn how to live with it.

And I wrote it down in my spiral-bound, a few words to sum it all up.
And what i wrote in down in my spiral-pound is that I think that I've had enough.
Oh, where is the point where we've all had enough?

My sweet Laurel is this life nothing but an albatross?
And If that be the case is there some Rubicon we can cross?
May we lay in the woods with our eyes closed if ever we feel lost.

If there were a curtain that showed what our lives could be and if we read through our history books so thoroughly;
Would we have any reasonable expectations of how to be free?

I dreamt you were drowning beneath a sea of green dollar bills.
Woke up to find you drowning beneath a sea of prescription pills.
Every day you say you'll get better and I hope you will.

I wept like a child when I heard you had let me down.
But you still loved me completely even when I forgot how.
Freedom is revolution and revolution starts now.
