Undress the hate
Your tired hands
Begin to shake
Your so worn out
War torn indifferent
You lie among the cobwebs in your hiding place
You take another pill and float away, yeah
And you, you were born to the rule the world
And you could have changed the future
But you didn't realize what it took to pay the price
You were born to rule the world
But you couldn't tell the future
Can you look into the eyes
Of the innocent who've died
You were born to rule the world- yes you
You were born to rule the world
We call your name
The same name that's always been
From the dawn of time
We need your help
To save us from ourselves
We turn to the guilty and religious right
We try to understand the reasons why? why?
That you-
You you were born to rule the world
And you came to change the future
We could not realize
Why you gladly paid the price
You were born to rule the world
And you died to make us listen
A Human sacrifice
Can we look into your eyes
You were born to rule the world
You were born to rule the world
You were born to rule the world
(Musical bridge)
And you, you were born to the world
And you came to change the future
And you didn't criticize
You just laid it on the line
You were born to rule the world
The magic and the lesson
A Human sacrifice
Can we look into your eyes
Can we look into your eyes
Will we look into your eyes
Will we look into your eyes?
(Outro voice)
Sure enough cooking is our own fate
And not everyone thinks about the human race
Even when were all swimming in the same big lake
You know everyone listens but they never change
Too many people want to just kill the pain
But all of us need to hear that voice again
Yeshua
Oh my god, there's something changing
That we didn't know
'Firing line'
Guilty as charged
Take another life
No one here but me to blame
Take another life
Guilty as charged
They saw us coming
From miles away
Jubilant train
Wearing a pink boa and feathers like an exotic bird
Double headed
Breathing smoke
Looking for a line to quote
Waiting to jump the rope
To change the vote
To witness hope
In the newest thing
Called freedom
But they said 'no way'
And they wore the same coats
Khaki brown and faded
Typed at the same machines
And tried to box up all the dreams
In neat little packages
Like widgets for the factory
All the while watching big brother watching
Big brother watching
Big brother watching...
'But we are crashing gates
And we are passing over the gate keepers"
We are the new
And we are marching like a jubilant train
Through your towns
Past your landscapes of lame ducks
Past the lines of indifference
Past the stormtroopers of compromise
The deputies of damage control
The officers of fear
As they hand out their tickets to the deaf and the dumb and the younger ones
To the very old, the influential, the disturbed, the zealots, the sheltered, the innocent.
We pass through the gates
Like the dawning of a new age
Like the turning of a new page
Like the birth of a new son
Like freedom
On a roll
Wearing nothing but a smile on our faces
And our hands up in the air
It's a future love song
