Thirty Pieces of silver screen

Deep inside our souls

How did we betray our imagination

Watching our futures unfold

Without a whisper for fear of intrusion

We have to see how this part ends

Time out for commericals

Time out to be good friends

But our generation's angry

We're so scared that we can't see

The answer right inside of us

If we can find the place in our hearts where we're all free

Does it see that time works against us

Or does it just march on and on and on

Sometimes it drives me crazy

Proving Nostradamus wrong, so wrong

But we still have secret silos with buttons, codes and keys

We can avert this awful disaster

If we find the place in our hearts where we're all free

And what a tall order

Far be it for me to say

Maybe I'll try a little harder

Starting Here Today

Or just throw in the towel

Laydown five up the ghost

And join all the cynics

Luckier than most.

Maybe I'll check out with a bullet

Would you think less of me

Or would it frighten you enough

Would it rattle you enough

Would it frighten you enough to ...

Find the place in our hearts where we're all free
