You say these problems don't concern you Well, wake the fuck up cause they really do How many ways is society going to fuck it up? How many lies until we've had enough? We've got to start to care about the consequences Take a look around, it doesn't make any sense, Pollution, oppression, violence and destruction Lies, deceit, poverty and corruption Our ignorance has made us blind To the problems that we are facing Our indifference, our tolerance Makes me sick Indoctrinate lies Covering our eyes Mold us into the mainstream Taking our lives We've gotta break these chains Our ignorance has made us blind To the problems that we are facing Our indifference, our tolerance Makes me sick

Just a preachy thing that doesn't get at any of the problems you say "we" must solve.

yes it is a load of sh*t and that is the reason i wrote it. you could look at it being ironic i guess, 'ignorence has made us blind' but its ignorent to preace and not not see or offer a solution.
