Open Your Eyes

So you say our contry is fucked

let's see what we have

fuck up cops - a fucked court system

discrimination against anyone who doesn't have a lot of money

there's high unemployment

and there's people living in the streets with no food to eat

but one more thing that we have is hatred amongst ourselves

there are scenes - from different cities - they're putting each other down

and bands they want to get paid a lot of money

they're getting greedy - and they're selling out

and kids - your friends - they're talking shit and they gossip right behind your back

sometimes i got to get away from all this shit

so i'll go down by the East River, i'll sit down by the water

and i'll try to figure it all out

why am i alive, and what the fuck is my purpose in this life

who are my real true friends and who will stick by me no matter what!

don't tell me you want - unity

don't tell me you want - anarchy

don't tell me - about your dreams

when all you do is destroy our scene

we have to live as one - open your eyes

can't let this world get us down - open your eyes

all the kids throughout the world - open your eyes

lend a hand and do not run - open your eyes

open your eyes - open your eyes - open your eyes or you will fall!

when you're young your parents they try and tell you what to do

oh no - we've lost control of you - so we think it's time

we put you in a nice reform school

now you're older - more mature - you should be able to adjust

but they way they did it - it's so fucked up

so now you won't listen to society - so it's time for you to go to jail

always remember in this world

you're not alone, cause i know the deal, i've been there too

we were forced through life the hard way

and yes we learned - but for the way they did it

in the end they'll burn!

don't tell me you want - unity

don't tell me you want - anarchy

don't tell me - about your dreams

when all you do is destroy our scene

we have to live as one - open your eyes

can't let this world get us down - open your eyes

all the kids throughout the world - open your eyes

lend a hand and do not run - open your eyes

open your eyes - open your eyes - open your eyes or we will fall!
