Set Sail / Down In History

Get me off, this sinking ship It was never heading where I wanted to go Set a course for a colossal rift Bad idea but how were we to know, it was Said that we would live the life of dreams No puppeteers controlling all our fears We were, fed lies and they reeled us in Promised us gold but at the cost of sin This time it'll all be alright, the new Captains gonna save our souls Raise the anchor and drift away We don't want no company anyway This time it'll all be alright, the new Captains gonna save our souls Set sail and take us away We don't want your company we're better off without you Better off without you There's talk of mutiny among the crew They're saying, look what a mess you've got us in to Are we heading East or West And what about when there's no supplies left? You're tripping over lies, You're getting tongue tied You're full of excuses and you're running out of time You're numbers up, we'll vote for someone new They've promised us they can do what you can't do This time it'll all be alright, the new Captains gonna save our souls Raise the anchor and drift away We don't want no company anyway This time it'll all be alright, the new Captains gonna save our souls Set sail and take us away We don't want your company we're better off without you Better off without you We're taking everything away from ourselves To feed the greed and sow the seeds of our destructive farewell The cracks in our society are splitting straight down to the core What's the point in fighting when all we are is ignored But no ones bothered with rebellion They're all too happy with extinction We're going down, in history As the generation that lost it all The generation that threw it all away There will be no more history We stood aside and let it die Watched it burn Right in front of our eyes No ones got an attention span Long enough to see the damage That we're causing to ourselves Fake news, fake truths, fake lies Stick them all together and ignore the worlds cries It's screaming, crying everything is dying You poisoned the well, it's terrifying We are not stupid we're not useless But we're too happy with excuses We're going down, in history As the generation that lost it all The generation that threw it all away There will be no more history We stood aside and let it die Watched it burn Right in front of our eyes We're going down, in history As the generation that lost it all The generation that threw it all away There will be no more history We stood aside and let it die Watched it burn Right in front of our eyes Our eyes Our eyes
