Bombs exploding, and tears are flowing
Chasing rockets and gasping for air
You can call it justice or retribution
Yet the reasons are never clear
Freedom is just man's invention,
and a soldier is just a slave
Self inflicted, so addicted,
Bad habits are hard to break
[Chorus:]
I'm alive
Watching better turn to worse
One more time
Try to civilize the universe
Without the righteous, without the faithful
We would never accept the obscene
A false confession, a priest's obsession
Gives the demon a light to be seen
Burn the witch and hang deserters
[Chorus:]
I'm alive
Watching better turn to worse
One more time
Try to civilize the universe
There's only one choice to be made
We're thought restricted, and herd afflicted
The truth is so hard to take
The righteous and the faithful
Give the deaf man to the blind
the world full of confusion
From a disease of the mind
[Chorus:]
I'm alive
Watching better turn to worse
One more time
Try to civilize the universe
I'm alive
Watching better turn to worse
One more time
Try to civilize the universe
Try to civilize the universe |
