Today I woke up thinking its dead,
Something else is just so with me,
Millions of questions spring up in my head,
No way…..
So I decide to take a walk instead,
Anger mixed with fear, resentment its bad,
Police firing takes all the questions away,
Bang Bang……
BRIDGE:
I believe in fighting,
Dunno wrong or right,
But I will take a stand,
Against an imagined enemy…
When hunger claws back at me,
I will work for clothes and shelter,
The cause will fade away,
What the hell was it all for anyway….
CHORUS:
Im confused x 4
There must be meaning, hoping its true,
Put all my faith in a girl I barely knew,
Heartbreak hurts worse than acidity from booze,
Its new…
Videos showed that I should be cool and hip too,
Integrity went for my brand new shoes,
Movie stars told me money buys happiness too,
So it must be true….
BRIDGE:
Now I believe in earning,
More than I can spend,
and opportunity,
illegal or legal means the same..
when I don’t have friends
and family barely recognize me
excuses fight the blame,
what the hell was it all for anyway………
CHORUS:
Im confused x 4
Guitar solo

How about friends for a dime?
How about streets full of crime?
How about senators who cant read?
How about governments that don’t wanna see? Oh yeah
How about liars and fools,
Controlling your schools?
How about men who have died?
Killed just because they could not lie?
BRIDGE:
I say look at yourselves x 4
CHORUS:
The state of my nation!! x 8
See now bribing is cool,
Losers follow rules,
How about friends in high posts?
The common man’s just a joke
How about selling your wife?
For designer clothes and a brand new tie?
My god is better than yours,
Accept this or ill get my sword
BRIDGE:
I say look at yourselves x 4
CHORUS:
The state of my nation!! x 8

Tie me down coz i don't wanna,
Just stand by and act naive,
The past is gone and i was a goner,
I wish i could change the seeds
Throw it out,
break it down,
let it burn
As long as you got all you need
See the smoke,
Coming out,
Of the trees,
Let it burn you have all that you need
Chorus:
Tie me down,
Hang me out,
I'll be your scapegoat,
If you need..
Don't look back,
I'll be okay,
You need a hero,
For now it's me....
Break the fall coz i don't wanna,
Feel like there's no need for me,
Save the son, Not the father,
Hope exists with the breed
Throw it out,
break it down,
let it burn
As long as you got all you need
See the smoke,
Coming out,
Of the trees,
Let it burn you have all that you need
Chorus:
Tie me down,
Hang me out,
I'll be your scapegoat,
If you need..
Don't look back,
I'll be okay,
You need a hero,
For now it's me....
