see the devil on the doorstep now. my, oh my.
telling everybody, oh, just how to live their lives.
sliding down the information highway,
buying them just like a bunch of fools.
time is tickin′ and we can′t go back. my, oh my.

what about the world today?
what about the place that we call home?
we′ve never been so many,
and we′ve never been...so alone.

you keep watching from your picket fence,
you keep talking but it makes no sense.
you say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are.
you wash your hands, you come out clean,
but you fail to recognise, the enemy is within.
you say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are.
we are.

one step forward making two steps back. my, oh my.
buying pity on the bad boy′s back for life.
lining up for the grand illusion.
no answers for no questions asked,
lining up for the execution, without knowing why...

you keep watching from your picket fence,
you keep talking but it makes no sense.
you say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are.
you wash your hands, you come out clean,
but you fail to recognise, the enemy is within.
you say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are.
we are.

it′s all about power, by taking control,
breaking the will, erasing the soul.
they suck us dry till there′s nothing left.
my, oh my. my, oh my.

what about the world today?
what about the place that we call home?
we′ve never been so many,
but we′ve never been.....so alone.

so alone.

you keep watching from your picket fence,
you keep talking but it makes no sense.
you say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are.
you wash your hands, you come out clean,
but you fail to recognise, the enemy is within.
you say we′re not responsible, but we are, we are.
we are.

we are, we are, we are.
