Cassandratic Equation

The past nights I have had dreams
Three dreams of change
The final conflict at the world's end
People running away from fear

Hands to cover the eyes and ears and mouths
Of the leaders drowning, listen
Are our souls in bondage, unbreakable

Heart riot, exodus solution
The divergent path seems so clear
We run back into freedom
We focus and we defy this time of pain

This time of pain

And so we go to the underground America, 1999
It could be any year, anywhere
It's the underground America, 1999
It could be any year, anywhere

Underground America, 1999
It could be any year, anywhere

They try
To teach
Us to
Take back, take back now

Into bondage, a people liberated
They shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot and reload fear at the working classes
And the poor are separated from their families as the rich act like they've never felt any pain
Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, they reload fear at the working classes

In the wound lies self-defeat

They jail the threat of consciousness
And deprives us of choices, we suffer the mess
I revolt for the vision, strength, kindness
And love in your eyes

Run back into freedom
We focus and we defy this time of pain
This time of pain

And so we go to the underground America, 1999
It could be any year, anywhere
It's the underground America, 1999
It could be any year, anywhere

Underground America, 1999
It could be any year, anywhere

They try
To teach
Us to
Take back, take back now

Into bondage, a people liberated
They shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot and reload fear at the working classes
And the poor are separated from their families as the rich act like they've never felt any pain

So we build a window for the vision of a freedom we could reach
Will we smash it with the brick of, the brick of self-defeat?
In the underground America, 1999
And it could be any year, anywhere
