The Art Of Reason

Record Details

Release
2004

Can you give me a reason
Why you shone for a season
Then you turned to deceiving
I don’t believe that it’s right
You pretend you can hear us
But you won’t come near us
Now it’s all got serious
I don’t believe that it’s right

We thought you’d do your best
For future generations
But all you left was a mounting debt
I don’t believe that it’s right
We thought your peace could flow
Like water through the nations
But you shut down the fountainhead
I don’t believe that it’s right

Can you give an account now
As the truth’s coming out now
It’s the end of the countdown
I don’t believe that it’s right
Now we’ve lost all our patience
With your forced liquidation
Of our land of our nation
I don’t believe that it’s right

We thought you’d right the wrongs
That others brought upon us
But you sold off our right to choose
I don’t believe that it’s right
We thought you’d fight for us
But you just fought among us
And you sold off your servitude
I don’t believe that it’s right

No more tries and no more chances
No more lies to pass as answers
No more smiles and false relations
No more world indoctrination

Sorry for being angry
Sorry for being numb
Sorry for all the dreaming
I really should have done
I thought that I was blameless
I thought that I was safe
I thought that a happy ending
Would happen anyway

I can’t believe we never noticed
I can’t believe it took so long
For us to turn around the future
By standing up for what we
All believed in all along

It was there right before our eyes
We were blind not to realise
In the rush to be globalised
We signed away our freedom
We forgot how to criticise
We were scared to be demonised
As the truth was neutralised
We lost the art of reason

Shallow the crusader
And shallow their crusade
But deep the ideology
That brings them into play
Political correctness
A foil for our minds
A false exoneration
To cover up the crimes

I can’t believe we never noticed
I can’t believe it took so long
For us to turn around the future
By standing up for what we
All believed in all along

It was there right before our eyes
We were blind not to realise
In the rush to be globalised
We signed away our freedom
We forgot how to criticise
We were scared to be demonised
As the truth was neutralised
We lost the art of reason

It was there right before our eyes
We were blind not to realise
In the rush to be globalised
We signed away our freedom
We forgot how to criticise
We were scared to be demonised
As the truth was neutralised
We lost the art of reason

I don’t believe that it’s right

Can you give me a reason
Why you shone for a season
Then you turned to deceiving
I don’t believe that it’s right
You pretend you can hear us
But you won’t come near us
Now it’s all got serious
I don’t believe that it’s right

We thought you’d do your best
For future generations
But all you left was a mounting debt
I don’t believe that it’s right
We thought your peace could flow
Like water through the nations
But you shut down the fountainhead
I don’t believe that it’s right

I don’t believe that it’s right
I don’t believe that it’s right
