Atrocity

you can't tell me how to be

you can't tell what I should see

when I'm sleeping

I'm still believing

stripped of all identity

I try to sleep I grit my teeth I'm so afraid

what will tomorrow bring

I won't fight In any wars

and I can't stand to see much more

atrocity...

you can't tell me what to say,

I will follow my own way

'cause I'm a person,

I'm a thinking person

please believe that love's not lost

hate and shame a crooked cross

I'm so ashamed

don't make martyrs out of us

(chorus)

and when the bombs come falling down

the hate is still inside of you

but if you want a better world

then I'll be right behind you
