The newspapers the media, controlled by government, write what they were told to / Thousands imprisoned and thousands are dead and tomorrow it starts again / Can‘t believe what I see people get shot while they‘re fighting on the streets / Houses burning to the ground just because a government has to show its power / People fighting for their right to vote, to speak, for their freedom of mind / Demonstrating peacefully on the streets ending up hunted down by law / Why does it always have to end like this? Why can‘t it just once have a happy ending? People need to stand up and fight for their rights / They‘ve been oppressed way too long! A different country here today the same shit, what can I say? Bodies covering the streets just because they claimed democracy / The first shot, the first scream, panic and rage ruling the streets / It began with demonstration but again it leads to civil war / Why does it always have to end like this? Why can‘t it just once have a happy ending? People need to stand up and fight for their rights / They‘ve been oppressed way too long! The newspapers the media, controlled by government, write what they were told to / Thousands imprisoned and thousands are dead and tomorrow it starts again / Why does it always have to end like this? Why can‘t it just once have a happy ending? We need to stand up and fight for our rights! We‘ve been oppressed way too long! I can‘t believe what I see people get shot!
Wow absolutely love every song - positive engergy blasting through my ears - heart beats per minute at 222 - every strum and hit and shout deserves its own memory - when this album plays, heaven is an ocean of sound waves and the cover art of heathcliff is printed on my surfboard - especially enjoyed all bass lines ;) IronBizkit222
