I cry for this world, for the ignorant walking around like sheep
They follow blindly, no questions asked, with promise of safety and security
I cry for the enlightened ones, who see this world for what it really is
All the corruption, all the immorality, those who are not ready for conformity
They walk their own path, often alone
They have to struggle through life, and run their head through stone
Mostly they bounce back, not able to break the wall
Give up on their efforts, a burden they can’t carry on their own
But you can’t just give up on your right
You can’t just give up on your pride
You can’t just give up on your heart
You can’t just give up on your life.
You have to know, you were never here alone
And hope it will be better for us all
You have to follow your path
For a better world
Not let anyone take this from you
You mustn’t let them draw you into the herd
And become one of their brainless buffoons
You have to know, you were never here alone
And hope it will be better for us all
Don’t cry
Don’t cry
Don’t cry
Don’t cry
Don’t cry for this world, for you are not alone, we will stand together
Against the oppression, we will teach them a vital lesson
