Oz - In a Shadow of a Shotgun

It's a race to infinity
Eternal life is what we need
The beauty of the mind is a beautiful lie
Perfect bodies want to see

Everything's fine, we know it's a lie
We can't stand the truth
Mankind on a suicide mission
So much for the golden youth

Confusing minds to commit crimes
It's easy, the cash blindfolds the eyes
Front row seat
To your own destruction

Speaking the words of hate in
The name of god
Holy wars
Roses are gone but thorns remain
Gettin' cut when you fall

Mindless demands
Useless commands
Traditions are tying our hands

Sending troops to a foreign land
Go restore the peace we never had
War machines patrolling the streets
Machine guns ripping the dreams of man

Paradise turned into a wasteland
To feed addictions of the western world
Vanity controlling the masses
Million mistakes, we never learned

Mindless demands
Useless commands
Traditions are tying our hands

Afraid of the unknown
Afraid of ourselves
We live and we die
In the shadow of a shotgun

Why the hell do we let things be?
Too scared to know what's real?
Walls of uncertainty
Too comfortable to break free

Mindless demands
Useless commands
Traditions are tying our hands

Afraid of the unknown
Afraid of ourselves
We live and we die
In the shadow of a shotgun
