Bad Religion - New America Lyrics

Do you know the cost of future misery?
Have you lost your sense of sustainability?
We are just a step away
From realizin', what we strive to be
But we've got to break out from this
Insulated, blind and lame senility

Wake up the new America
Transcend the mass hysteria
Change is the thing you're wary of
We need a new America wo oh

Laurels, human triumph, bestowments from the past
Victories don't mean a thing, if they don't last
We are just marching toward extinction
With blinders on our eyes
Jeopardizin' everything
We've learned and come to realize
You call that wise?

Open your eyes America
See through the lies they tell to us
Confront the fears that worry us
We need a new America

We don't have to be afraid to reinvent
We've got to start to build
Progress and implement
For when we take our fill
And never pay the price
We only build ourselves
A fleeting, false Paradise

Ya, you can live in staunch denial
And mark me as your enemy
But I'm just a voice among the throng
Who want a brighter destiny
And say with me

We are the new America
This is the new America
We are the new America
This is the new America
Let's go
