Tunes - Turned
Turned
Caught, in the undertow of today,
you start to drift away
got no place left to stay.
Turned, from that which you have known,
to that which you've been shown
your world's no longer your own.
Listen, when their words come out,
don't know what they're about
but you follow 'cause they shout.
You can't tell right from wrong,
you don't know what's going on,
You can't see wrong from right,
all you see is black and white.
March, just another face in the crowd,
you chant their "truths" out loud
while you wrap your mind in a shroud.
Raise, your hand up in a fist,
and yell about what you've missed
you're told it's time to resist.
You can't tell right from wrong,
you don't know what's going on,
You can't see wrong from right,
all you see is black and white.
Lift, their flag high in the air,
convinced that you are there
to fight for your fair share.
Darkness, creeps up on our fair land,
you grasp it with your hand
it's all you understand...
