lyrics

This is not progress
This is distress
Oh what a mess
What a big bloody mess

This is not a war
This is not a fair fight
This is not a window
For you to see the light

This is not a battle
This is not a victory
This is not about the desert
Or the oil, or being free

This is not a revolution
When there is no solution
This is impossible
To find a conclusion

~Chorus~
I can't stand here and watch my world die
I won't let my whole life pass me by
Why, must we fight, must we fight to survive
I can't stand here and watch my world
Die

This is not the news
This is just an excuse
For amusing our minds
With facts of no use

This is not fear
This is not being brave
This is not a prayer
To ensure I'll be saved

This is not guidance
This is not my advice
This is not a mystery under
Which the truth lies

This is not fate
This is not destiny
If there are no repercussions
Then do as you please

~Chorus~

This is not faith
This is not about religion
This is not about heaven
This was born from science fiction

This is not a weapon
This is not a toy
You look like a man
But you talk like a boy

This is not progression
This is repeated repetition
The leaders don't listen
To their own premonitions

This is not the solution
This is just devastation
Fight fire with fire
Is a hopeless equation

~Chorus~
