shane caraway - how could you be wrong? lyrics

i once knew a man so in love with this society
that he had confused wealth and power with reality
devout to his job but neglected health and family
praised for his commitment to fulfilling
someone else’s dreams

they always knew
they could count on you
to give up what you love
and who you thought that you were
to adopt their ideas of what it means to grow up
which is selling your body for what they say it’s worth
and it comes as no surprise
that its not very much
i once had a dream i’d forgotten
‘pon awakening
sensationa of falling terrified me
left me trembling
my eyes opened to
a world crumbling down around me
a real life nightmare
no awaking no escaping

they always knew
they could count on you
to shut up
don’t ask questions
do what you’re told to do
fall in line
sign your life away

there’s no point in trying
just follow the herd
and everything will be fine
you will work until you’re too old
and then try to retire

there will always be enough
with the wealthy in power
they would never take advantage of you
who’ve allowed them
to stand on your backs for so long
how could you be wrong?
