the path that I have chosen
it needs no words
the best that I have followed
they had no worth
I believe
cities destroyed by our waking dreams
panic created by a ripple in the sea
I will see
horror is another strategic tool
violence is another word for silence
I believe
youth was stolen when they took us as they pleased
youth was stolen when we pleaded at their knees
I will see
why can't you answer any of our prayers?
why is your answer silence?
sight is just a weapon
sent to stray
truth is just a message
their words can't claim
I believe
buried in the backyard where all the truth goes
burned in the open when all but truth knows
I will see
sight is the weapon cleverly deceived
sight is the weapon of silence

facts are sound but disputed anyway
truth is a message power can't claim
I will see
vision is treason and justice is hate
wisdom is a vision that's silenced
buried in the open
the secrets wait

freely we live where power can't stray

freely we laugh and love through every day
freely we live where power can't stray
I will see
wealth is a weapon borne by its chains
wealth is a word for silent
I believe
I can see
