Album: Class Of '98

Picture This


Everyday a battle is fought
Today I was reminded somehow I had forgot
Everyday a lesson is taught
Real estate¡¯s important and human life is not
Is all of this bloodshed worth an outdated plan laid by ancient hands
Such a crucial piece of earth
Take a look again it¡¯s a fucking piece of dirt
Can anyone show me what¡¯s wrong with this picture?
Something definitely looks out of place to me
It¡¯s clearly out of focus somebody broke us
But here¡¯s where the joke is nobody provoked us
We¡¯re broken and no one¡¯s to blame but us ourselves and we
We can¡¯t agree so we war egos declare young soldier be scared
But what are we fighting for
Something that¡¯s nothing that we can afford
We glory ourselves in our past ¡°the rockets red glare the bombs bursting in air¡±
We fly our flags at half mast
It¡¯s hard to take pride in young wasted lives
Picture this a world where governments are more concerned with feeding the people than their egos
Picture this a world where borders are mere lines on a map not symbols of economic gaps
Picture this respect on a grander scale respect for human rights
Picture this a world where there¡¯s no need to write songs like this
Can anyone out there help fix this picture
Who can make the world a better place to be
We¡¯ve got one chance let¡¯s take it the world¡¯s what we make it
If we¡¯re going to change it we can¡¯t be complacent
The future of the world is up to us ourselves and we
