A More Perfect Union Lyrics

Our fathers promised us

A land free from tyranny

Centuries of disgust

Oh, how sly we humans be

In '85 I was born

I heard, "What luck! To live free!"

And learned an empty heart

Is so much better than one filled with greed

Without the lies I've been told I may

Have never realized the truth at all

We've built a nation far from

The brick and mortar misery they call

A more perfect union

My mistakes as a man cannot amount to what they collectively carry out

As an ant alone can bite, but without the colony there is no fight

Forgive and let it go

Why can't we forget and let it go

We never forgive and let it go

Why can't we forget and let it go

And your deeds all alone cannot resist what they force on us bit by bit

As the wolf may kill the runt, but without the whole pack there's no hunt we never

Forgive and let it go

Why can't we forget and let it go

We never forgive and let it go

We always swear revenge and murder everyone

We can't go back and change it

There's no new land to run to now

No place to overtake

Did no one else bother to read The Prince?

They practice is so perfectly

They love it like their Bible

Twisting God to fool all mankind

Twisting all mankind to fool themselves

All these pretty words designed

To make you resign all your fucking power

And it will crumble

Oh, how it will fall

And every one of us

Will be responsible

Our fathers promised us

A land free from tyranny

Centuries of abuse

Oh, how broken humans be
