Never Stops

I'm alright, tell me you're alright Almost here, barely here I knew that this day would have to come Wailing on the wall watching giants fall I know there's a message to receive Written in debris streaming out to sea The loss of innocence means nothing in the new world All our hands our red everyone is guilty now I'm alright, tell me you're alright Stuck my eyes, open wide Another idiot glued to the box frozen to the screen Scared to turn it off Quiet shock gives way to righteousness Rattle on the bars vengeance will be ours Fanatics on their knees pray for a swift and just revenge Become what they condemn Mirror image man Hands across America Lets catch contact hysteria July 4th for ever more Colors of democracy Fly from every SUV The misspelled bumper stickers here Where did all the honor students go Numbers on the news This time with familiar names This time on familiar ground This reality in your backyard So the fences fall Will you redefine them all Will you just shelter your empathy The world we share has come too close With borders blown from glass We collect stones and cast them They say the party never stops I know we can not get off Another idiot comes on the box Breathing privileged air preaching to the fair Rallying one muscle under god Leaning on a chair Leaning on our fears The state of ignorance means nothing to the faithful God is with us now They disregard the world beyond the wall --- Never Stops - Lagwagon
