Can We Turn Back Yesterday?

We watched it sweep the nations

Infecting our feeble minds

We saw it begin to divide

Our friends and families - cut us like a knife

We watched our parent's mouth's froth

Rabid with their newfound hate

Reprogrammed by entertainment

Masked as news - inflating them with fear

They're fleeing from violence

They're fleeing from tyrants

Yet we turn 'em away, yet we turn 'em away

Throw 'em to the wolves

Women and children

Blood is on our hands

Have we gone fucking mad?

They're fleeing from violence

They're fleeing from tyrants

Yet we turn 'em away, yet we turn 'em away

Throw 'em to the wolves

Women and children

Blood is on our hands

Have we gone fucking mad?

I see the hate in the world as it inflames

I ask myself: "can we turn back yesterday?"

I watch it all as it withers and decays

I ask myself: "can we turn back yesterday?"

Can we turn back yesterday?

Can we turn back yesterday?

I thought we're better than this

Truly sickens me to say

We're killing the planet

And destroying the lives of the less fortunate

They're fleeing from violence

They're fleeing from tyrants

Yet we turn 'em away, yet we turn 'em away

Throw 'em to the wolves

Women and children

Blood is on our hands

Have we gone fucking mad?

I see the hate in the world as it inflames

I ask myself: "can we turn back yesterday?"

I watch it all as it withers and decays

I ask myself: "can we turn back yesterday?"

Can we turn back yesterday?

Can we turn back yesterday?

I'm feeling revolted by the way that we've chosen to live by the hatred that's invoked by the broken

We've ruined our chances with these violent romances we're witnessing the collapse of mankind as we know it

We watched it sweep the nations

Infecting our feeble minds

We saw it begin to divide

Our friends and families - cut us like a knife

They're fleeing from violence

They're fleeing from tyrants

Yet we turn 'em away, yet we turn 'em away

Throw 'em to the wolves

Women and children

Blood is on our hands

Have we gone fucking mad?

I see the hate in the world as it inflames

I ask myself: "can we turn back yesterday?"

I watch it all as it withers and decays

I ask myself: "can we turn back yesterday?"

Can we turn back yesterday?

Can we turn back yesterday?
