untitled  

the walls are closing in
theres nowhere left to go
the process is that much more complex
in what direction are we headed

we talk about good people and how they're all about
but look a little closer and all I see is shells
we are only individuals now
in what direction are we headed

Tell me cause I need to know
cause the way we're headed I won't go
joined or alone
I know how its supposed be

the bar is raised once again
leaving behind the passers by
an inch below the rest
tell me in what direction are we headed

in bleeding times of desperate measures
of spoken hate and visions of war
politics are still left to be
tell me what direction are we headed

Shining light on negativity
they parade the streets with shock value
to desensitize our mind
this is where we're headed?

cast your vote away with the wind
and hope it burns in the fire in their eyes
stand up to them my friends
and choose to change the direction we're headed
