Animalfarm - Sheer Force Of Will lyrics

Whatever happened to the guy I knew? Good as his word to a fault? Now he spends his days in front of a mirror Imploring the rest to exalt It used to be achievement was his whole life Now it would seem that that has changed He only quests after cool and conceit Thinking the rest of us deranged Whatever happened to the country I knew? Die for the right the right to say your peace Now the patriots have turned into tyrants We fear gangsters less than police TV, convenience, and the all mighty dollar Make up the new the Bill of Rights Nobody cares about what's right or what's wrong As long as their names is in lights Sheer force of will It's time to take back our honor Sheer force of will It's time to change our ways Sheer force of will We're only as good as we treat each other Sheer force of will Our arrogance is our malaise Whatever happened to the world I knew? Full of mana and quality Once there was a common human ideal Which is now called money Why is it that we're judged by our possessions? Can we buy ourselves respect? If that's what being a man has come to I refuse to genuflect Sheer force of will It's time to take back our honor Sheer force of will It's time to change our ways Sheer force of will We're only as good as we treat each other Sheer force of will Our arrogance is our malaise
