The prophecies came true
I witness the living proof
The world becomes as described in the fiction
The empty eyes stare at me
He's telling me war is peace
The course of events fits the description

The race has begun counting 3-2-1
Are you ready?

I'm not a star in your flag
But I'm expected to stand
For the blood thirsty cause of your forces
I cannot stay outside
There is no middle ground
No one can prevent things from changing

The battle has begun counting 3-2-1
Are you ready?

So run for your lives when it comes
We hail you dressed in rage
Cause only the insane will equate
Integrity with pain
Annihilate to liberate
Call your dogs of war
To account for
The hate, the disgrace you will now face
Cause we don't believe in the hype
about the land of the free
Where justice can be bought
Count zero

The signal is black and white
The evil personified
I'm looking at a face of catastrophy
The terror is unified
My vote is bought with the sight
Of the innocent cries
We've gotta make it right!

The race has begun counting 3-2-1
I'm ready!

I know I gotta do
What's right for me and you
I won't give up the hope, no
The dove has been shot down
The flowers stomped to the ground
But will always remain idealistic
