Done

The way things are never matches the way they should be. As our leaders herd us into the pits of despair and watch our oceans, our sands, our homes and our pockets run red, it seems we would be derelict to not put our attention to the top. It seems we would be loathe not to take action. Dissent, as Thomas Jefferson said, is the highest form of patriotism. We must stand as one against not only evil, but apathy and escapism. We must stand.

I'm done with the economy, done with Obama
Done with McCain, done with the drama
Done with programs you want me to watch
Done with the hands on the doomsday clock
Done with the threats, done with disputes
Done with the lies, done with the truth
Done with the stimulus I'll never receive
Done being told who I oughta believe

I've been lying to myself, and so have you
Black clouds fill our oceans, looks like we're through

We rise, we fall, we fight, we run
We die, we live, we start, and we're done

I am done with the church, done with the state
Done with the murders and done with the rape
Done with the scum who keep giving birth
Just to put our generation six feet in the dirt
Done with the gods, done with the devils
Done with the games and all the next levels
Done with the battles that I thought I'd won
Done trying to tell you how much I am done

I've been lying to myself, and so have you
Black hearts reign in office, looks like we're through

We rise, we fall, we fight, we run
We die, we live, we start, and we're done

I'm done
