lyrics

Sometimes they say that looks can deceive
Sometimes a wolf slips in among the sheep
What we’ve wandered into it’s a den of thieves
Who know that the only way to win is to cheat

What we got here is a wolf in wolf’s clothing
Everyone laughs but nobody’s joking
Ain’t a soul unaware of where it is that we’re going
Somehow they still manage to change the focus

It’s hard work I’m sure keeping up the lie
Never picking up the pieces, just creating new divides
It doesn’t really matter if you’re wrong or you’re right
Either way they’ll claim that they’re justified

Pulled back against our will, losing the energy to fight
If I could I would walk out now
But we haven’t got the time

Friend asks why we’d bring a child to this place
Who knows what kind of world they’ll inherit at this rate?
Everything moving backwards at a breakneck pace
And it’s only getting hotter

Truth be told, I hold the same fears in my mind
Trying to raise a child in these self-destructive times
Make a joke laced with truth to explain why
“Can’t just let them procreate, we need more of us to fight”

See, me and you, we were both born lucky
Took it for granted, now we both owe something
Do what I can while my heart is still pumping
For my wife, for my son, for my daughter soon to come
For my wife, for my son, for my daughter soon to come.
