As I stand up to the wall In fear to define history What lies right in front of me Can't feel as good as it used to be And the dead, any American is found To feel at times blue What can you do When you're sedated And put through the failure Of some man's world Stand by to believe In the land of the free Whatever you want it to be Desperate minds, desperate times To see the alter smashed over By this beast Hours spent, an infinite feast With the screen to devise Your fantasy And when I walk, oh, how I walk To stand and be tall on this burial ground The faint sound The echo of what they first found Must stand on somewhere Stand by to believe In the land of the free Whatever you want it to be So I didn't learn a thing in school About being one with star Chances are We're more far In the curse that divides The sun from you My family My country and my school Have all left me dry To wonder why We were just born to buy then die And change nothing In this time You must be strong Find your song Now In this time You must move on Don't fall behind Now
