I saw my revolution sold to a priest |
|
I saw the men of reason bow down to the east |
|
|
|
And oh, it's better to know |
|
Oh, it's better to know. |
|
|
|
The truth can make you bitter |
|
Even while it sets you free |
|
The truth's a hauting daunting mistress |
|
She ain't been good to me |
|
|
|
And oh, it's better to know |
|
Oh, it's better to know. |
|
|
|
Despite all the fools and liars |
|
Despite all of the wars |
|
The puruit of liberty is |
|
Still a noble cause |
|
|
|
And oh, it's better to know |
|
Oh, I swear it's better to know. |
|
|
|
All the forces of distortion |
|
All the pretty words you said |
|
The elephant in your living room |
|
The fascist in your bed |
|
|
|
And oh, it's better to know |
|
Oh, I swear it's better to know. |
|
Even though we're so alone |
|
For so long |
|
We've been so alone |
|
For so long |
