Correct A Century Ends

Lyrics:
Cast your eyes into the distance Try to focus on it all Find a spirit of resistance Instead of pride before the fall Forge some opposition From disparate strands It ain't the prettiest position As a century ends Unstable situation Faces made of wax Streams of melting glass Sheets of butchered facts The roar of the machine Hooded hearts and jeweled hands And anger spilling out like gasoline As a century ends Everything I seen, everything that I heard It ain't even the tip of the iceberg Fire down memory lane So pass me my rose tinted glasses again Through a fog of contradiction Out to the lake of tears See society admiring it's own reflection Chase a light that shines and disappears Careful what you say Cause reality offends Just sit back and let your soul decay As a century ends And it's easy to get weary As you fight to get it done 'Gainst a popular theory That it's over 'fore it's even begun Strain the limit of compassion Tend a wound that never mends And honesty still out of fashion As a century ends
