We go out of our way to mess up this world
We do all that we can to wreck our good deal
We throw our trash in the ocean
We throw our caution to the wind
We throw it all away
Grind it under our wheel
And then we tell ourselves
That we are good at hear, good at heart
This is the way we make our peace
Nevermore, we say
And never again
This is the way we make our peace
Forever and ever
Forever amen
We make a whole lotta noise
About how much we all care
But it don't mean nothing
If we don't follow through
We believe we're so damn smart
We believe know all the answers
But what do we know
When we don't know what's true
And still we tell ourselves
We can get it together
Get it together
We like the way that we look
When we look at ourselves
And we look at ourselves
Nearly all of the time
But we don't wanna see
What we don't wanna see
It's a world of hate
It is a world of crime
And still we tell ourselves
We will do the right thing
Do the right thing
