They're flying, they're styling, the President is smiling, We're loosin', it's confusin', we're beggin', they're refusin' Can't replace it, erase it, come back to hell and face it Without lying, we're dying, the choppers keep on flying Like they're playin', who're they saving? The President is waving Ooh, sometimes I see the faces, so real to me Can you see anything you recall? Big shot in helicopters on my TV Can you feel anything after all? And everyone is telling me This is just the way it's meant to be You're living in a world of fantasy
And there we waited Each wasted day, hope devastated Sail away, sail away For the human race we're gonna leave disgrace behind Sail away, sail away From the jaws of hate we'll take control of fate this time Sometimes I had the feelings I'm going through You can lie, but you know no one cares Outside the waves are crashing the piper's due Here inside you can't go anywhere And everyone keeps telling me God will save us all eventually This is just the way it's meant to be Just scared of thinking the angry seas Our ship is sinking
