You can't tell me how to be.
You can't tell me 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 tomrrow 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.
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.
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.
