Laughter in a Police State

Lyrics

[Intro] The governments say that it's what we need Work until we die, serving someone else's greed They separate, divide, but it's the same red blood we bleed Rob us the fruit, but we always have the seed [Verse 1] People speaking out against what they see Searching for the truth and the promises of liberty People are imprisoned for what they believe Or is it just propaganda? [Chorus] Out of the gate, we're all quick to defend The sellout positions, white-washed of content To our heart's discontent To our heart's discontent Too afraid of our failures Faith and future unknown Do we dare to reach beyond it? Do we dare? [Verse 2] You screamed in my face, but I waited quietly Religious leaders, politicians, and the lies you say Economic poison of the enemy Bottom of the bottle where the poor men stay Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh Or is it just propaganda? [Chorus] Out of the gate, we're all quick to defend The sellout positions, white-washed of content To our heart's discontent To our heart's discontent Too afraid of our failures Faith and future unknown Do we dare to reach beyond it? Do we dare to stand alone? [Breakdown] To stand alone, we stand alone! Feel the pressure rising, whoa-oh-oh Feel the pressure rising, whoa-oh-oh Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh Pressure rising, push the future Pressure rising in the present, we Pressure rising, push the future In a house divided In a house divided, whoa-oh In a house divided, we will In a house divided, watch it fall!
