lyrics

I can't believe what I've seen this day
I can't believe what I've seen this day
I can't keep it to myself, no I can't keep it in
Can't keep it to myself, no I can't keep it in

Victims of society trapped in the zeitgeist
Mind so limited it pales to the field mice
Soul so fragile it would snap like a branch
Apply the force to break it unless you meet my demands

I believe I'm a fool and the world's even worse
Self-deprecating thoughts until I rest in my hearse
Alone in a room in a cycle of despair
In spite of my progress I'm in a state of disrepair

I can't believe what I've seen this day
I can't believe what I've seen this day
I can't keep it to myself, no I can't keep it in
Can't keep it to myself, no I can't keep it in

I must confess, I'm a different man
This inner conflict, will it ever end?
In time I hope I'll see the revolutionary
In time I hope I'll see the resolution carry me
