|
They murdered their own to start an endless war |
|
Sat back and relaxed as the buildings burned |
|
This is the age of ignorance |
|
It is a sickness that brings us to the end |
|
They poisoned our food to keep their margins high |
|
And as they count their money, the starving die |
|
This is the age of ignorance |
|
It is a sickness that brings us to the end |
|
It's time to stand up, get ready to fight |
|
For all the wrongs that should be right |
|
Or watch the world as it slowly falls apart |
|
As it slowly falls apart |
|
They could cure this cancer in the simplest ways |
|
But the longer we're sick, the more the doctor gets paid |
|
The longer we wait to get out of these days |
|
The shorter we'll live and the faster we'll decay |
|
This is the age of ignorance |
|
It is a sickness that brings us to the end |
|
It's time to stand up, get ready to fight |
|
For all the wrongs that should be right |
|
Or watch the world as it slowly falls apart |
|
As it slowly falls apart |
|
If the people lead, the leaders will follow |
|
The teachers will be the ones that never played this game |
|
This is the age of ignorance |
|
It is a sickness that brings us to the end |
|
It's time to stand up, get ready to fight |
|
For all the wrongs that should be right |
|
Or watch the world as it slowly falls apart |
|
We'll stand up for what we believe in |
|
And won't back down 'til they see the reason |
|
To change the world before it slowly falls apart |
