Welcome to the united state of desperation
Hanging by a thread
Thirteen stripes
And one God above this nation
Or selfishness instead
All we want is to believe our declaration
But we were brought up with a strange education
All we want is to believe our declaration
But we were brought up with a strange education
Freedoms fall to lesser dreams of greed and power
Now economy is dead
Fallout brings
The grave reward of empty wages
Slipping through our hands
All we want is to believe our declaration
But we were brought up with a strange education
All we want is to believe our declaration
But we were brought up with a strange education
You’re so quick to change direction
Watch out as you go
So quick to trade affection
For silver and gold
All we want is to believe our declaration
But we were brought up with a strange education
All we want is to believe our declaration
But we were brought up with a strange education
All I want is to believe our declaration
But I was brought up with a strange education
